Description Bastien Nocera 2007-06-07 14:07:37 UTC
NetworkManager-0.6.5-3.fc8
wpa_supplicant-0.5.7-3.fc7

Looks like NetworkManager can't connect to wpa_supplicant anymore.

Setting up the connection by hand with ifcfg network scripts works just fine.

Comment 1 Christopher Aillon 2007-06-07 19:27:58 UTC
You need NM 0.6.5-4.  We removed a CLI option to the supplicant and removed the
call from NM so you needed to ugprade both.

Comment 2 Christopher Aillon 2007-06-07 19:39:20 UTC
Ah oops, forgot to build that in rawhide.  Get -3.fc7 (not -3.fc8) or -5.fc8
tomorrow.
