Hostapd package
«

Hello,
It would be possible to have a tcz package for hostapd that includes the compilation from here:
http://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-a-raspberry-pi-as-a-wifi-access-point/compiling-hostapd
?
I'm using the adafruit binary as it, but I have to add it to the filelist and I don't think this is a good way and a package should be better.
Thank you!
Gabriel

I've just created an extension for settings to install the hostapd file onto usr/local/bin.

Hello I've just installed it and when I try to run with the following conf:
interface=wlan0
driver=rtl871xdrv
ssid=Pi_AP
hw_mode=g
channel=6
macaddr_acl=0
auth_algs=1
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0
wpa=2
wpa_passphrase=Raspberry
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=TKIP
rsn_pairwise=CCMP
Hostapd claims that there is an invalid/unkwon driver 'rtl871xdrv'
The same conf with the binary from adafruit works.
Am I missing anything?

It appears that "driver=rtl871xdrv" would be particular to a patched ancient version of hostapd from Realtek.

It seems so, thanks for sharing the link.
So, in order to make hostapd work with the 8192CU dongle the patched hostapd is the only way, isn't it?

Maybe, hardware is not a direct criterion, but driver in use is, see section "Requirements" here:

It seems that the only solution is to generate two diferent packages one for the normal hostapd and another for the "patched realtek compatible" version.
I can't think on a better solution here
