lola% iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
on the other hand, if it works fine if I skip the scanning and bring it up by
hand... :

Once it is connected, iwlist scan works, finding my network, and a few others
in the area.
This is fresh install of natty. This is a regression as the same card worked
fine under 10.10.
should this be same bug, or separate?
