Description of problem: I can not get my WiFi to completely connect when using the latest kernel. It attempts to connect but prompts for the WPA2 key after a few seconds. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.27-0.329.rc6.git2.fc10.i686 How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot using kernel-2.6.27-0.329.rc6.git2.fc10.i686. 2. Login and attempt to connect to a WiFi network requiring WPA2 encryption. 3. Fail Actual results: Not able to connect. Expected results: Should be able to connect. Additional info: I'm able to connect using kernel-2.6.27-0.323.rc6.fc10.i686.
What hardware are you using? What messages are output from dmesg or are in /var/log/messages? Are you using NetworkManager? Or running wpa_supplicant directly?
Having the same problem using 2.6.27-0.352.rc7.git1.fc10.i686. I'm using RaLink EW-7108PCg wireless card. I am not seeing any entries from dmesg in /var/log/messages. I am using NetworkManager.
Perhaps you should just attach /var/log/messages to this bug.

Just upgraded to latest kernel tonight (2.6.27-0.370.rc8.fc10.i686). Still having the same problem. 2.6.27-0.323.rc6.fc10.i686 still works properly.
That is odd...only a few wireless-related patches came in between 2.6.27-rc6 and 2.6.27-rc8 upstream, and none of them look pertinent to wpa2 or any driver other than ath9k (or maybe b43/b43legacy). I'm not sure what else is getting into rawhide in between the kernels cited in comment 6.

FWIW, I built a vanilla 2.6.27-rc8 kernel w/ the config from 2.6.27-0.352.rc7.git1.fc10.x86_64. The vanilla kernel connected to my WPA2 AP w/o a problem, while the fc10 kernel failed. I'm forced to suspect that something we are adding to Fedora is causing this problem. I just don't know what that may be. :-(
Ditto w/ vanilla 2.6.27-rc8 w/ config from 2.6.27-0.377.rc8.git1.fc10.x86_64...

Having the same problem with 2.6.27-0.398.rc9.fc10.i686.
It appears that it works now using the 2.6.27-3.fc10.i686 kernel.
