Subject: [PATCH - resubmit] rtl8180: Fix to add STA mode
Date: Sun, 04 Jan 2009 09:38:39 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4960D7FF.9010903@lwfinger.net> (raw)
To be compatible with mac80211 following commit 3fc7826b95521
(mac80211: only create default STA interface if supported), rtl8180
needs to set NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION in interface_modes.

John,
This bug has now started to affect users of 2.6.28-git mainline. Did
it get lost, or has it already been push upstream?
