Description of problem: Use the wpa_gui to detected available ssid, configure the encryption, save and connect. Restart my system and launch wpa_gui. I discover I have no configured ssid. Which means I have to start the whole process again Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): wpa_supplicant-0.5.1-4 wpa_supplicant-gui-0.5.1-4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Launch wpa_gui, scan, type in encryption and save 2. Execute ifup wlan0, connected, then restart desktop 3. Launch wpa_gui, no already configured ssid from step 1 Actual results: Already configured ssid is not saved Expected results: wpa_supplicant.conf should retain already configured ssid Additional info: Rebuild the src.rpm file with the original wpa_supplicant.conf and modified the spec file with buildrequire section. Tested and it is working perfectly

I think you should set in wpa_supplicant.conf: update_config=1 Hope this work.
Sounds good, thanks for the tip. Fedora ships what upstream does, and upstream doesn't include update_config=1 in their wpa_supplicant.conf. Most people should be using NetworkManager or somesuch tool for GUI network config anyway.
