 I have just installed ver 0.9.1, and am trying to set the card to 802.11g
 mode.

 I have done the following:

 [root@boojum root]# modprobe ath_pci autocreate=ap
 [root@boojum root]# iwconfig ath0 rate 54M
 [root@boojum root]# iwconfig ath0 essid NingNing
 [root@boojum root]# iwconfig ath0 key SECRET
 [root@boojum root]# iwconfig ath0
 ath0      IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"NingNing"  Nickname:"boojum.picton.nom.za"
           Mode:Master  Channel:0  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
           Bit Rate=54Mb/s   Tx-Power:0 dBm   Sensitivity=0/3
           Retry:off   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
           Encryption key:BEEF-15DE-AD   Security mode:restricted
           Power Management:off
           Link Quality:0/94  Signal level:-95 dBm  Noise level:-95 dBm
           Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
           Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

 When I try set the mode, I get the following:
 [root@boojum root]# iwpriv ath0 mode 3
 Jun 27 17:01:39 boojum kernel: ath0 (WE) : Buffer for request SIOCGIWPRIV
 too small (128<144)

 ath0      no private ioctls.

 [root@boojum root]# iwpriv ath0 mode 11g
 Jun 27 17:02:22 boojum kernel: ath0 (WE) : Buffer for request SIOCGIWPRIV
 too small (128<144)
 ath0      no private ioctls.

 [root@boojum root]# iwpriv ath0
 Jun 27 17:02:22 boojum kernel: ath0 (WE) : Buffer for request SIOCGIWPRIV
 too small (128<144)
 ath0      no private ioctls.

 Is this known, and are there any fixes for this?
