I tried the bleeding edge build of compat-wireless (compat-wireless-2011-12-14 build) on Linux-3.1.5. It still leads to kernel panic. I manually got the AP up with these steps: 1. Removed ip from eth0 2. Created a bridge with brctl 3. Added eth0 to br0 4. Ran hostapd with my con file. And it showed this error: l2_packet_receive - recvfrom: Network is down 5. Tried to connect my client devices. None were getting authenticated. 6. I assigned an ip to br0. Client got authenticated. System on AP mode froze.
