Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-686
Version: 2.6.16-2
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

the ipw2200 module in the kernel doesn't have the monitor mode enabled.
It should be enabled like the one for ipw2100 but trying to enable it via
menuconfig on a vanilla .16 kernel doesn't allow this option.
But it is in the code

linux-2.6.16/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2200.c
....

#ifdef CONFIG_IPW2200_MONITOR
                case IW_MODE_MONITOR:
                        rc = ipw_get_fw(priv, &ucode,
                                        IPW_FW_NAME("sniffer_ucode"));
....

Is it a upstream bug?

Thank you.
