<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>CVS from 9/17/04, and kernel 2.4.21-144 (suse 9.0
stock), a pcmcia (hostap_cs) and a plx device (hostap_plx, and a atheros device
as well). wlan0 - Atheros, seems to work fine, wlan1 - pcmcia (200Mw
Senaeo) AP w/1 client (<- my feed, use acl), seems to work fine, wlan2 - plx
adapter w/normal power Zcomax clone (manfid 0xd601, 0x0005 not 200Mw <- my
broadcast), works fine...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is when i start hostapd on the wlan1
interface, I get "could not connect to kernel driver" "hostapd : no
private ioctl" (<- or something quite similar to that, no ioctl,
anyway).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>At this point, i went ahead and got the last
release (0.2.4) drivers/utils, and hostapd. This seems to work ok.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The firmware on the card in the plx adapter is
rather old (1.3.9), but since i dont need WDS and otherwise it seems to work
quite well, i havent bothered to update it. Let me know if you wish any
more info or want me to try something else. I dont know if it is a
problem, but i thought the developers should hear of this error (if it is
one).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good luck </FONT></DIV>
