Hi I'd like to setup a simple test scenario with mac80211_hwsim in order to check some corner cases in the scanning behaviour in NetworkManager. Though the problem is that NM doesn't see the mac8011_hwsim devices. I found out that the problem is that hald won't notifiy on dbus there is a new wireless device available. After a bit debugging I can tell that the problem is that there isn't a parent device available: hal/hald/device.c: hotplug_event_begin_add_dev (..., parent_dev = NULL, ...) net_add(..., parent_dev = NULL, ...) { if (parent_dev == NULL) goto error; } Before I go deeper into that thing, does someone has an idea what could go wrong here with mac80211_hwsim? thanks, daniel -- 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
