The problem is: if I create an adhoc interface:
# wlanconfig ath0 destroy
# wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode adhoc
and then setup:
# iwconfig ath0 essid "someessid"
# iwconfig ath0 channel 3
and then bring the interface up:
# ifconfig ath0 up
The system suddendly hang up. I've tried enabling debug (80211ieee +debug) bug it hangs before any message. There's no Kernel oops too. It just stops, with caps lock blinking.
The problem is present only if radio is on, and if I turn up the interface with radio off nothing happens until I switch radio on, then hangs.
My hardware is an Acer laptop, TravelMate? 371 TCi.
I've this problem with both trunk (r2359) and 0.9.3 version, with both kernels 2.6.20.6 and 2.6.21.1.
If there is some more information I can provide, please ask.
