wlan_scan_ap and wlan_scan_sta

2009-02-26 Thread Janos Dohanics
According to the Handbook, I can compile into the kernel

device wlan_scan_ap  # 802.11 AP mode scanning
device wlan_scan_sta # 802.11 STA mode scanning

But when I do, I get:

config: Error: device wlan_scan_ap is unknown
config: Error: device wlan_scan_sta is unknown
config: 2 errors
*** Error code 1
1 error
*** Error code 2
1 error

I'm wondering why? 6.4-PRERELEASE, amd64

Does the handbook say the version of FreeBSD with which you can compile
these in the kernel?
I know they also refused to play with 8.0-CURRENT for me recently.

Well, the Wireless Networking page doesn't seem to mention specifically any 
version of FreeBSD.

6.4-R does not need these, you can remove them safely.  I'll add a note
to the Handbook.

They have been removed from -CURRENT since Apr 20 2008, the Handbook
cannot follow the changes on -CURRENT, it's a fast moving target :)
