Yeah but IMHO you're solving the wrong problem. If we want any credibility we shouldn't allow users to ignore any regdom that easily, and this is system-wide. Also, iwlwifi partly caused this problem in the first place by printing out eeprom channels rather than having users use "iwlist wlan0 channel" to see which channels are usable. Or even iw, which shows you which are disabled. johannes --=-q91im58De9zLokPF50iH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJIaMUPAAoJEKVg1VMiehFYFL4QAI4DWKrDuVc2Z0pgb2a9vFmZ PdO210NMS2spwcWr9ycMx9xtEaCY/Z2NvVQq605LHjx6OoAcgo1ghbJ7yw3BVlgw Y8Iw48e26JsmpTk0i9j+12zr/dD6JDsTgtMdXbybsureXd6h0IefJm2GBmNMYU6d /uNGwQImFmCErZtsytbHS0oV96MDrcQ2uKvuhIOLJlIVw5a8Eu3z4IchZ0/dicNM x27x1F2qNwbDkARlsknRENm12CcFnaQrxGm//zh3lSPp5q4otea7taww+szuEHzS OkbllunWiqzJtaSpt7rMMp2JPORDG5LnSvQQ4NaO9pDSZIarglgyA5wPTXGw2pMf XI4/j6TmCH2/t4DMEYMEOXIWE87ug++tJacNShs/kReox4nnWs6O0aJgAwz7YDai 3azVvn2Imc2RgOV5OwwMpR0MqcIRAzxj+RizwxwDw2Eq50gwQGXYmVxjM799rZAf wSAEzRnFDIaftquJIlX9mVKS+WCjKx6CBc5GDAqBO0oyKQY1UmliCkcRPxjNcjYT yS2c2ZYyyw03iYxprz2ETfV008CzG9FUGovNd8tPGfO4eo5ymMGwoHvP+YJrYqnD zDDJTVdchiehGl1ung1NPHEp+p0LqF516x3WHffs7oS3fcTB731f+5ob17g3uuFV exldqe6HfIKVevFwvF2c =R9xv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-q91im58De9zLokPF50iH--
