Roaming problem

Hi all!
We here are trying to modify the hostap
driver a bit, so that it does automatic
romaing (controlled by our driver) when in
host_roaming mode 2 (manual roam).
We use a threshold value of signal strength
to make a decision about when to perform a
handoff.
The problem is that sometimes while
performing an active scan, we see a lot of
"trash" being printed (when we run dmesg).

Any pointers on why this happens, would be
really appreciated.
Thanks.
