[Bug 572777] Re: NetworkManager or wpa_supplicant timing out when connecting wireless

2010-06-06 Thread planctus
I can confirm this is happening with lucid lynx and a macbook 5.1 with the 
Broadcom proprietary drivers.
I've tried to follow the instructions in #35 with no luck.
I think this should gather attention, more than a medium valued bug.

I can't connect to wpa/wpa2 with my laptop and this is critical, i switched to 
lucid lynx hoping to fix this problem i was experiencing in Karmic but nothing 
changed.
Everything is working with open networks, instead

Hope to find a solution,
Thank you, by the way
Da.

Doesn't make any sense...
Well, i messed up things trying to fix this problem, i've been following 
different directions and one of them was to install a backport module for 
wireless.
Nothing worked so i decided to remove and then reinstall the broadcom driver, i 
did it but after that i was totally without wireless since the wl module 
wouldn't load due to an unknown symbol error.
It turned out it was that backport module i've installed to cause this so i 
removed it.
Then i had wireless back, but the same problem with the wpa stuff.
So i decided to downgrade the wpasupplicant i just upgraded following the #35 
comment.
I came back to the wpasupplicant package in the  ubuntu repositories.

I couldn't believe that, but when i tried to connect to my wpa protected 
network it worked immediately.
Now, i'm writing this without having rebooted yet, so...i can't say my problem 
is completely fixed.
I'll update this if it comes back.

Thanks,
Da.
