Comment 12 for bug 973241

ok that patch obviously solves the problem for all ipw2100 und ipw2200 owners but there are potentially some more drivers affected by the strange kernel behavior of not reporting a non nl80211 compliant driver to userspace (at least not in an way nm understands). If I assume that every driver that is nl80211 compatible doesn't need to supply information by means of an iw_range struct because this is done by wext-compat.c for it just grepping the kernel source for filling of this structure yields the following possibly affected drivers: ps3_gelic_wireless.c, wl3501_cs.c, atmel.c, zd1201.c, airo.c, ray_cs.c, hostap, prism54, r8180_wx.c, vt6655, rtl8712, wlags49_h2, vt6656, rtl8192u, rtl8192e. On the other hand does the patch also handle Intel Pro Wireless 2915 which is handled by ipw2200 too? What about checking if a wireless driver can encrypt at all for determining that nl80211 shouldn't be used? A wireless device that doesn't even support WEP is pretty useless I think.
