Description Vladimir Benes 2009-07-02 13:53:32 UTC
Description of problem:
no matter which encryption do I use connection-editor shows password in hex (WPA) or some kind of ASCII coding (WEP)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open nm-connection-editor
2.add new wireless profile with some security enabled 
3.check via edit that password can be shown as it was entered before 
  
Actual results:
hex or kind of ASCII

Expected results:
human readable text should be shown

Additional info:
this should be only matter of GUI as it has no effect to connection ability
12345 != acdb95776dd114409ab54323c6 my check throws out this all the time it does not change in time (WEP 128-bit passphrase)
12345 != 3132333435 when inserting WEP 40/128-bit Key (it is 31 32 33 34 35)
