I meant the patch should have applied to the vanilla kernel source as well, if you have gone to the trouble of recompiling the kernel to get mac80211 as module.

So this is suspicious. That's strange. Do you have the crda package installed? You need the regulatory database userland stuff for crda to work. http://www.linuxwireless.org/en/developers/Regulatory/CRDA >>> can do iwlist wlan0 >>> >>> iwconfig wlan0 shows: >>> IEEE 802.11bg Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated >>> Tx-Power=20 dBm >>> Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off >>> Encryption key:off >>> Power Management:off >>> >>> >>> I do not seem to be able to connect to a given access point so far.
