Bug description:
  When trying to create an access point, I am met with a fatal error
  with hostapd:

  nl80211: Could not configure driver mode
  nl80211 driver initialization failed.
  hostapd_free_hapd_data: Interface wlan0 wasn't started

  What worked before no longer works today after a package upgrade.

  After installing hostapd deb from Ubuntu 13.10, it works.
