Hi. I probably found some bug in countrycode feature.
Using kernel 2.6.16 and madwifi (svn r1705)
Using Wrap Board and one CM9 card and one CM10 card.
When loading driver with no countrycode option... wifi0 - CM9, wifi1 -
CM10

'''CM10 not working! WHY??'''
'''CM9 card work, but txpower cannot set higher than 16dBm even if with no
countrycode option I'm able to set txpower to 19dBm. WHY??? In Czech
Republic is legal to use 20dBm txpower.'''
