I've just commented out the previous line in
/etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf that used to set : options cfg80211
ieee80211_regdom="EU"
Then, I restarted... and tada ! the messages are gone :-)
# iw reg get
country 00:
(2402 - 2472 @ 40), (3, 20)
(2457 - 2482 @ 20), (3, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
(2474 - 2494 @ 20), (3, 20), NO-OFDM, PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
(5170 - 5250 @ 40), (3, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
(5735 - 5835 @ 40), (3, 20), PASSIVE-SCAN, NO-IBSS
# iw reg set FR
root@inf-8657:~# iw reg get
country FR:
(2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
(5170 - 5250 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
(5250 - 5330 @ 40), (N/A, 20), DFS
(5490 - 5710 @ 40), (N/A, 27), DFS
All seems much better now :-)
Who's the faulty one ?
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
