Prism54 support for hostapd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I am using the prism54 driver from linux 2.6.25.2. The wireless card works in master mode but I cannot run hostapd. Error message:

# hostapd -dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf 
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
ctrl_interface_group=0
Opening raw packet socket for ifindex 6
ioctl(SIOCGIFINDEX): No such device
prism54 driver initialization failed.
eth2: Unable to setup interface.


Strace has shown that hostapd tries to open eth2ap, which the prism54 driver does not provide. It does work neither with hostapd 0.5.1 nor with 0.6.3 (dev). 

Has there been a change in prism54 that breaks hostapd support? Thank you for your answers.


Regards,
Christoph Kling
