TX Power Set Problem in SENAO Card

[Ricardo Oliveira]

I have a problem running HostAP v0.12 in my Slackware 9.1 
box!!
The driver loads ok at boot but after that I cannot set 
the output power!!

My card is a Senao SL-2511CD PLUS EXT2 (200mW), and the 
output of "iwconfig" is as follows:

root at linker:~# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0     IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"oaz.wifi"
