Hi Pavel and thank you,

I tried for days and finally I realized that when I do "make install"
still my box does not run my new code.
The only way I managed to use 5 GHz channels was setting my regdomain
to 0x00 with ath_info.

I really would like to know why my debian based box does not run my
modified compat-wireless code after "make install".

Any idea?

Thank you,
alfonso
