I forgot about this.  I just tried joining an adhoc network here, and
it will not let me join at all Giuseppe.  wpa_supplicant just tells me
"failed to set operating mode"..  I'm running wireless-compat though,
so my ubuntu that is not completely using iw yet may just not work in
this case..  Like I said, it is no big deal to me though.  Sorry I
can't help further.
