I completely understand and I already was worried that this might be a staging-driver issue, which is why I mentioned this was with a staging driver in the more detailed bug-report email. > But OTOH, that fix to the driver is simple and looks correct to me since > it only ever has a static regdomain, and the notifier does the work of > applying it to the channels as well. So I've given your fix a quick try and it leads to a NULL pointer deref. But now that you've given me a lead on how to fix this (network/wifi drivers are not really me expertise) I can take a shot at seeing if I can fix the NULL pointer deref. I Hope to get back to you on that later today. Regards, Hans
