i did, you need root privileges first
first, you should turn your wifi on and add Wi-Fi network (setting,wireless&networks,Wi-Fi settings, add Wi-Fi network
give a name like "droid" (mine with no security)
then turn your wifi off
open root explorer (require root access)
after that edit the /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf
and add some line into it:
ctrl_interface=wlan0
update_config=1
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="droid" <--- your wifi name (mine droid)
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=NONE
mode=1
}
finally, turn your wifi on, and let your laptop scan it
hope these help

I tried your guide out, after a few restarts I got access to my phone's wifi with my laptop, just no internet access and the phone kept on searching for the IP untill it turned off the wifi.
Do you have any clue as to why?

I have tethering working on my mini pro. All I did was root, and installed Barnacle Tethering.
There was no setup necessary, just opened the app and pressed start and it showed up in the wireless list for my laptop.

cause you should turn on your internet connection sharing on your laptop (sharing your laptop connection via laptop to your x10 wifi)
