MeeGo uses connman (see: http://connman.net/) for network
connectivity, and Ad-Hoc support in connman has not been finished as
far as I know.

There are some people who have gotten it to work manually according to
a quick google search, but it's likely not working in the current
MeeGo releases without modifications or recompiles.
