That said the fact that you are not seeing a regulatory domain being set is an issue provided you have CRDA installed or use CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB. Keep in mind that the latest version of wireless-regdb had a signature issue reported by users and not sure if that is cleared yet, so that would also prevent the wireless-regdb being read even if CRDA was present. To rule that out try putting the db.txt into net/wireless/db.txt and compile with CONFIG_CFG80211_INTERNAL_REGDB for now. Then send the dmesg output, no need for all that fluffy intel debug log as its not useful in this case. Luis
