When I tried on linux-2.6.29.4 I've got:
./hostad hostapd.config:
Configuration file: hostapd.config
nl80211: Could not add multicast membership for scan events: -2 (No such
file or directory)
nl80211 driver initialization failed.
On this mailing list I found that kernel 2.6.30 is needed and now I've
2.6.30-rc7.
./hostapd hostapd.config:
Configuration file: hostapd.config
ioctl[SIOCSIFFLAGS]: No such file or directory
nl80211 driver initialization failed.
ELOOP: remaining socket: sock=3 eloop_data=0x93c9860 user_data=0x93c9d58
handler=0x8078180
On both kernels iwconfig wlan0:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg Mode:Master Frequency:2.412 GHz Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
cat hostapd.config:
interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ssid=test
Where is my mistake? why is it not working?
