NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL is *NOT* in include/linux/nl80211.h in the 2.6.32.4
kernel. It's there in the 3.0.4 kernel; there's a comment section
* @NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY: set wiphy parameters, needs %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY or
* %NL80211_ATTR_IFINDEX; can be used to set %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_NAME,
* %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TXQ_PARAMS, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FREQ,
* %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_CHANNEL_TYPE, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_SHORT,
* %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RETRY_LONG, %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_FRAG_THRESHOLD,
* and/or %NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_RTS_THRESHOLD.
* However, for setting the channel, see %NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL
* instead, the support here is for backward compatibility only.
before the definition of enum nl80211_commands.
Perhaps we either need a configure script option that looks for
NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL (it's not a #define, so we can't just check for it), or
check for a #define that arrived along with it, and either need to leave the
wireless toolbar out if it's missing or fall back on NL80211_CMD_SET_WIPHY if
we can use that.
