I get this messages and everything seems to be ok (iwconfig shows
the ISSID) but there seems to be no transmisson of my box.

(I have a nice scan app for XP, so I am pretty sure...)

If I start the XP IBSS first, I can find it with my wlan box connected to
another XP pc, but if I connect it to my linux pc, all scan fail and it
finds nothing...
