Thanks Joerg! I tried : iw dev wlan0 survey dump and nothing show up.
What drivers are supposed to have this feature implemented?

Anyway, I really like to have it implemented for ath9k before removing 
the deprecated noise value. If it's not currently implemented, I'll try 
my best to send a patch in the next couple of days. I'll try then to 
implement it for ath5k (already done?), ar9170, zd1211rw (if possible), 
rt2800usb/pci.

BTW, on rt2800usb/pci, it seems the noise is reported on a per packet 
basis by HW. Kinda strange isn't it? :-]

Regards,
Benoit
