OK, it looks as if, for adapters where the only channel type supported is
WS80211_CHAN_NO_HT, there will be a combo box that offers only "no HT".  That
might be adequate here; removing the combo box might be a nice refinement or it
might be overkill.

Jeff, does it build for you, and does it let you choose the channel but not let
you select a channel type other than "no HT"?  (That's what it should do, with
your version of the kernel.)

I'll play with it on my Ubuntu 10 and Fedora 16 VMs.
