It prints some warnings because it starts with channel 0. The interface can be brought up if you set a valid channel, and I think it might scan. And if you want to use madwifi-old-openhal for the purpose of testing, please use today's revision, or it will corrupt memory due to incorrect get_order() rounding that Linus has reverted in 2.6.21-rc4 (the fix is not in wireless-dev.git yet). -- Regards, Pavel Roskin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
