nl80211: Failed to enable userspace MLME

[Ahmad Ali Tabassam]

Hello Everyone
A wpa_supplicant-0.6.6 is running on
two different Linux environments, First is Fedora-10 + Compact
Wirless (2008-11-21) and the otherone is Ubuntu Desktop 10.6 with
Wireless git tree 2.6.28-rc4-wl.
On both machines I have patched two
patches, one is vif_conf.patch and the other is
userspace_mlme_allow_bssid_mismatch.patch 
But on both machine I have the
following error for wpa_supplicant.

[root at AP1 wlan]# wpa_supplicant -iwlan1
-Dnl80211 -puse_mlme=1 -c wpa_supplicant.ft_psk.conf 
Failed to set interface wlan1 mode 
Could not configure driver to use
managed mode 
nl80211: Failed to enable userspace
MLME 
Driver interface rejected driver_param
'use_mlme=1' 
 
Is there anyone  who can guide me, Jouni Malinen if your are there please please, why
the driver nl80211: Failed to enable userspace MLME, for ath5k and
ath9k. The build time and run time configuration is given below.

CFLAGS +=
-I$(WIRELESS_DEV)/net/mac80211

wpa_supplicant.ft_psk.conf ## 
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant 
eapol_version=2 
ap_scan=1
