So I simply added a patch to my devices kernel that overwrote the EEPROM regdomain. That's way cheaper than to reprogram each device. Some people live in a wishful world where they think that every manufacturer reads all docs of the chipset producer and where only the correctly programmed cards submerge in the correct markets. Creating my won regdomain bin with my own signature was way too much for me. > If the driver said "EEPROM regdomain: 0x0 = US" I'd return the cards to > the manufacturer, simple (realistically they'd fix the EEPROM instead). And the supplies has this card form some chinese source and can't get them to get reprogrammed. Also returning a bunch of 250 cards is quite an administrative hassle, not to say that during that time you cannot produce 250 devices, because you're then short of supply (substitute "250" with any number you like). Really, country stuff in EEPROM is b......t, and I'm simply ignoring this concept --- for my specific usage domain. -- http://www.holgerschurig.de -- 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
