Basically if your card does not support scanning then you have a few choices 1) Hard code the ESSID - this only works when you only use one AP 2) Hard code a list of ESSID's - this works fine as long as you only use the AP's in the list. However, it's slow as it attempts to connect to each in the specified order. 3) Use the ESSID ANY - this forces the driver to associate with an AP that it chooses - you have no control over which one it selects.

Hello everybody!
I'd just like to inform all of you who patiently waited for news in
regard to Intel Compiler support for Gentoo, that karltk and I just
commited some of the latest versions of the Intel(R) C++ Compiler
(dev-lang/icc-8.1.030) and the Intel(R) Fortran Compiler
(dev-lang/ifc-8.1.02{6,7}). Both packages still need to be worked one
and are thus package.mask'ed. As long as they aren't finished, the old
versions will stay in the tree.
Bugwranglers: Please assign bugs for icc to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and CC me.
For ifc, it's just the opposite ;-) No worries, we already changed
metadata.xml.
