Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: plasma-widget-network-manager

System: Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04 beta, up-to-date as of 2009/04/07.
Package: plasma-widget-network-manager
Version: I've tried two separate versions, both have the same missing IEEE8021X 
method.  The 'stock' plasma-widget-network-manager package fails, as well as 
Per Hermanssons's patch (from 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-network-manager/+bug/334052).

The network manager plasmoid cannot set IEEE8021X security method.

I can successfully connect to our college campus's PEAP network using the 
following settings on gnome's nm-applet tool:
Wireless Security: Dynamic WEP(802.1X)
Authentication: Protected EAP (PEAP)
AnonymousID: <none>
CA Certificate: <none>
PEAP Version: Automatic
Inner Authentication: MSCHAPv2
User Name: <omitted>
Password: <omitted>

/var/log/daemon.txt shows that network manager is passed 'key_mgmt =
"IEEE8021X"'.

The network manager plasmoid does NOT allow the IEEE8021X option, only
WPA-PEAP.  This fails connection on our campus network.  I've attached
relevant excerpts from /var/log/daemon.txt.

End result:  While nm_applet can successfully connect to this network,
plasmoid-network-manager CAN NOT.
