I believe the scan is working, but your hardware may not be supported yet. Try updating to the latest kernel, there have been some fixes recently. I suggest that you run ath_info from the latest madwifi-trace: svn co http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-trace make tools/ath_info ADDRESS where ADDRESS is the memory address of your card, as shown by "lspci -v" You can post it to [EMAIL PROTECTED], as there is too little activity here. You can be asked to make a trace for your card as described at http://madwifi.org/wiki/DevDocs/MadwifiTrace Tracing doesn't work with Linux 2.6.24 yet and requires a 32-bit x86 kernel. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-users
