Description Adam Serbinski 2007-10-03 19:52:12 UTC
Description of problem:
When selecting a wireless network to connect to, if the network is encrypted, a
dialog appears requesting a password or encryption key. When the key/password is
filled in, the "Connect" button remains GREYED OUT and cannot be pressed,
therefore connection is impossible.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.3.svn2914.fc8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to connect to encrypted wireless network
  
Actual results:
"Connect" button is greyed out after filling in password/key and cannot be pressed.

Expected results:
When the key is filled in, the "Connect" button should be enabled.

The current SVN snapshots dont' support WEP passphrases.  Use a hex key for the
time being; WEP passphrase support is in-progress.
