Hi,
I was wondering how to enable WifiDirect under android with the Olinuxino A13 wifi and I found this:

I don't know how to apply all this stuff, but look promising.
Can You help me?
are you having trouble getting the A13 wifi running?
no, the device is working perfectly.
I think that following this guide will allow to use the WifiDirect feature hidden within Android because the wifi module is from Realtek RTL8192CU family chip, but I'm not sure.
This guide is based on the pandaboard device/kernel, but I don't how to fit this guide on the A13 wifi.
I'm not a kernel/ROM cooker at all, so I'm a little in trouble.
are you familiar with
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/wifip2p.html
do you mean that I can just use the wifidirect apis in order to use it?
I tried the wifidirect demo from android samples but it doesn't work 'cause the app ask to enable the p2p feature in settings, but there is no p2p option.
If someone is interested i can provide for the source used in this guide:

My question is:
is this method suitable for the a13 wifi or not?
If yes, how to apply it?
