           Summary: Wireless command "set nickname" (8B1C) not supported
           Product: prim54
           Version: 1.0.2.2
          Platform: ia32
        OS/Version: All
            Status: ASSIGNED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: Device Driver
        AssignedTo: prism54-devel@prism54.org
        ReportedBy: pe2hu@yahoo.com


SuSE linux ifup script calls 'iwconfig device nick nickname' command.
This is not supported in current driver.

I saw on the to do list, that you are working on full wireless compatibility.
Could you implement this function as well?

/var/log/message contains the following:

Jan 22 11:28:04 pnemeth ifup-wireless: command 'iwconfig eth1 nick pnemeth' returned
Jan 22 11:28:04 pnemeth ifup-wireless: Error for wireless request "Set Nickname"
(8B1C) :
Jan 22 11:28:04 pnemeth ifup-wireless: SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not
supported.

I added some base code for the ioctls. Ran one test and they weren't returning
what they should be. It's late night so time for bed. I disabled the ioctls for
now but the code is commited. Should be trivial to fix. Perhaps someone up can
finish it off.

Good night.
