Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.5.5-2
Severity: normal
I tried the new modes of wpa_supplicant using /e/n/i.
Using "wpa-conf /path/to/config" works fine but unfortunately blocks the
boot process. But when I use the new roaming mode (which is quite nicely
implemented btw.), my card, a ipw2100, does not associate.
If I login and run "wpa_cli -i wlan0 scan" manually, I get a connection a few
seconds later. So my guess is, that in roaming mode the card is not
properly initialized to do scanning.
Cheers,
Michael

#342887 has been closed meanwhile and more recent changes to both
util-linux (hwclock.sh) and ifudown (networking) start invoke
wpasupplicant and its roaming mode considerably after hwclock.sh
(hwclock-first.sh no longer exists), also the timezone information is
just about to be reworked through adjtime, so I'm pretty sure that this
bug got fixed (recently).
