Sujith,

Can you tell me your setup for....

kernel ver?
hostapd ver?
libnl ver?
architecture ?

I'm running....
Compat-wireless 3.1 (ath6kl still in staging) built against kernel 2.6.35.3
    mac80211 as module
    cfg80211 as module
hostapd v2.0-devel (git cloned today)
libnl-2.0
arm, freescale imx51

I tried hostapd v2.0-devel and no go.

Anybody know if the ath6kl driver in compat wireless supports AP mode?

hostapd hostapd.conf
nl80211: Failed to set interface wlan0 into AP mode
nl80211 driver initialization failed.

hostapd.conf
interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211
ssid=test
channel=1

Using
hostapd v0.7.3
libnl-2.0
Most of the ath6kl developers use wpasupplicants AP mode for this so I
recommend trying with wpasupplicant first. It might be that hostapd
requires something which ath6kl doesn't support.
hostapd works fine, but a recent git version is probably required.
v0.7.3 is a bit old, I think.
