problems with zydas

Sat Oct 1 12:06:26 PDT 2005

ok, i set it to 0, and it seems the lockup is gone.  I'd also made the
ssid broadcast instead of hidden. so here is where i am now.  iwconfig
wlan0 essid myssid still won't change it, though, and here's the
output of running wpa_supplicant in dbug mode

after ifconfig wlan0 up ...
