Package: network-manager-gnome Version: 0.9.4.1-1 Followup-For: Bug #667729
I also encountered this bug. There are similar bugs in Ubuntu, Fedora, and Gentoo: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/973241 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815331 http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7003656.html?sid=3dfae5840b7569cbe78f105c86b2a3e8 Note that all of this is specific to the ipw2200 driver. If the OP does not have that wireless set, then it is likely a different bug. The underlying issue (as I understand it) is a kernel bug: when using the newer nl80211 interface, it incorrectly reports that the card does not support any encryption. There is a kernel patch fixing that issue here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg88069.html However, you may want to consider putting a workaround in nm-applet as well. There is an Ubuntu PPA that does that here: https://launchpad.net/~jools/+archive/ipw2200 Note that there are several other related issues; eg, the connection strength doesn't show up in nm-applet. I don't know if that kernel bug has been fixed yet. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (50, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.2.17 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages network-manager-gnome depends on: ii dbus-x11 1.5.12-1 ii dpkg 1.16.3 ii gconf-service 3.2.5-1 ii gconf2 3.2.5-1 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.4.0-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-32 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.2-1 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.5.12-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.98-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-5 ii libfreetype6 2.4.9-1 ii libgconf-2-4 3.2.5-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libgnome-bluetooth8 3.2.2-1 ii libgnome-keyring0 3.4.1-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.4.2-1 ii libnm-glib-vpn1 0.9.4.0-4 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.4.0-4 ii libnm-gtk0 0.9.4.1-1 ii libnm-util2 0.9.4.0-4 ii libnotify4 0.7.5-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii network-manager 0.9.4.0-4 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.105-2 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome recommends: ii gnome-bluetooth 3.2.2-1 ii iso-codes 3.35-1 ii libpam-gnome-keyring [libpam-keyring] 3.2.2-2 ii mobile-broadband-provider-info 20120402-1 ii xfce4-notifyd [notification-daemon] 0.2.2-1 Versions of packages network-manager-gnome suggests: pn network-manager-openvpn-gnome <none> pn network-manager-pptp-gnome <none> pn network-manager-vpnc-gnome <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
