Yes, thanks for the pointer. Se let's keep this bug (#704853) open to track auto-detection of WEP vs PSK. Btw, #700924 is about my bonus point idea of having a "display password" toggle. /Simon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

reassign 704853 netcfg retitle 704853 Should detect WEP instead of asking thanks Quoting Cyril Brulebois (k...@debian.org): > > 1) The WLAN password is displayed on screen.

Hi Simon, and thanks for your report. Simon Josefsson (06/04/2013): > The installation completed fine but I had two minor issues/concerns: > > 1) The WLAN password is displayed on screen.

I can't find a pointer right now, but that was discussed on this list already, and yes, it would indeed by nice to have. That would mean implementing some bits on the debconf side, too. > 2) Wouldn't it be possible to auto-detect WEP vs PSK2 instead of > asking? That I don't know.

The installation completed fine but I had two minor issues/concerns: 1) The WLAN password is displayed on screen. User account passwords are not displayed on screen, so presumably it is a bug for WLAN passwords to be displayed. Bonus points for a "Display password" button to toggle display of the password. 2) Wouldn't it be possible to auto-detect WEP vs PSK2 instead of asking?
