And this is new with 2.6.29? Because I know that the optional
dependency of kernel26 on crda has been there for some time and I
haven't needed crda yet. When I'm running 2.6.28 not having crda
installed and having AP hidden, everything works without problems.
2.6.28 had static regulatory settings for "US", "EU" and "JP" built-in,
and "US" was enabled by default. Active scans were allowed there on
channels 1-11, but now the default changed to "World" and that is VERY
restrictive. If you don't have crda installed, you cannot use any
802.11a channels, only channels 1-11 are enabled with passive scanning
only and no adhoc.
I've been away for the Easter holidays but anyway it seems that really
all I needed to do was install crda and uncomment WIRELESS_REGDOM="CZ"
in /etc/conf.d/wireless-regdom and it all seems to work again. Thanks a lot!
