open80211s

[Andrey Yurovsky]

You need to install the zd1211rw driver, which uses mac80211 and
supports mesh.  One way to do this on Ubuntu is to install
compat-wireless.  Please read and follow the instructions here:
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download#Buildingandinstalling

You will also need to "blacklist" or otherwise remove the driver
Ubuntu shipped, but I believe that compat-wireless will do this for
you.
