try (as root):

Code:

ifconfig wlan0 up

The interface needs to be up before you can scan, you can't scan because the wireless chip cannot communicate with the rest of the devices due to firmware not being loaded. So you need to have the interface up either way.

N900/ Nokia N900 is not a phone/smartphone! its an internet tablet with phone functionality - so quit assuming its still a phone/smartphone when it isn't!!
