Subject: ISL3890, master mode, prism54 -> p54pci regression
Date: Sat, 13 Mar 2010 08:50:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B9B43B0.1030801@dp.fce.vutbr.cz> (raw)

Hello,

I have been using prism54 driver and my PCI wireless card was working in 
Master mode. After upgrade to kernel-2.6.32 there is no prism54 driver 
so I switched to p54pci. The problem is that I cannot set the Master 
mode anymore, I get this error:

# iwconfig wlan0 mode master
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

This is my wireless card:

03:05.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism 
Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] (rev 01)

this is my kernel version: kernel-2.6.32.9-70.fc12.x86_64
And here is what I found in dmesg:

Is there any possibility to set the master mode?

Thank you,
Jan Martinek
