ipw2100: nm_device_set_frequency(): error setting frequency

["Christoph Rüßler" <christoph ruessler gmx de>]

Some days ago I downloaded the CVS version of NetworkManager, but it does
not work as expected. The daemon starts, detects my wireless adapter and
begins to scan for an access point. But because the ipw2100 driver supports
the "Set Channel" and "Set Frequency" operations only in monitor mode (see
http://ipw2100.sourceforge.net/faq.php#qa_2_1) the daemon fails. Is this a
general problem or do i have to upgrade anything?

Gentoo Linux with kernel 2.6.9.
NetworkManager: latest CVS
