Bug Description

I added 'wireless-mode ad-hoc' to /etc/network/interfaces, but it is not set at start up, saying

> SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

And it ends running in Managed mode, I have to manually run iwconfig to set ad-hoc mode.

It also prints the same message about essid, but this one is actually set.
