The dispatcher as a service has been replaced with a callout that preserves the same functionality but also enhances it to include VPN changes as well. You shouldn't notice any functional changes since your dispatcher scripts will still be executed with the same arguments and the location hasn't changed. It's just activated on-demand right now and quits when it's not used, so you don't waste memory all the time when the dispatcher doesn't have anything to do. > [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# iwlist wlan0 scan > wlan0 No scan results > > as root, it says "No scan results" even though there are a bunch of > networks available.

That's a driver issue then... if you _know_ there are APs around, but the driver doesn't report them with iwlist, there's something wrong in the kernel. Have you tried the b43 driver instead of ndiswrapper?
