i'm tring to setup a kernel testing virtualmachine for a 80211 module.
i start my machine with this command:
kvm -m 512 -net nic -net vde -usb -usbdevice host:0ace:1215 ktesting.img
i set up a kvm image with debian connected to a vde_switch at the eth0 interface and with a
Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0ace:1215 ZyDAS ZD1211B 802.11g
i installed the 'zd1211-firmware' and give the right permissions in /dev/bus/usb.
the wlan0 interface go up:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 52:54:00:12:34:56

but when i try to use wpa_supplicant to connect to my router:
wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c conf
i got this output(stderr and stout):

i tried using the wifi adapter on my laptop to connect to the same network with the same config file installing only the zd1211-firmware and it work perfectly. it's not a problem of my compiled kernel as the problem persist with the stock debian kernel (wheezy)
i tried to post this on serverfault, as i'm not sure whatever it's the right one and i've got no answers i'll post it there too

added lsmod because it could be some module failure – kurojishi – 2013-01-08T20:00:15.140
