my wireless adaptor doesn't work
Hello all, My wireless adaptor doesn't work with networkmanager on ubuntu right now. It is GW-US54GZL of Planex using chipset zd1211. First I found the version of of zd1211 on ubuntu is too old to identify my adaptor. I simply download the latest version of zd1211 driver from their offical website (http://zd1211.ath.cx/). After compile and install the driver, my computer can identifymy adaptor. However, as I plug it in, the NetworkManager tray icon disappears and seems the NetworkManager hangs. It happens every time I plugin the addaptor. What can I do? Koala Yeung ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
[PATCH] Use hal device type instead of poking with ioctl
NM should just use what hal has already determined as the type of device
instead of going and poking via ioctl again. Especially as poking via
ioctls isn't necessarily going to work if, eg, the kill switch is in
use.
Patch attached -- look okay to commit?

I finally figured out howto make dhcp actually work here. 1. You must use the actual IP of the wap11 in the ifcfg-wlan0's IPADDR= statement. Otherwise the request for dhcp never gets off the laptop and thence to the subnet for service! 2. Once thats done, the dhcpd server can apparently run on any box on the subnet. However, this brings up the question of how does one determine this AP address when out in the puckerbrush connecting to some motels wifi? Is this something that an 'iwlist scanner' can find? This is obviously something that all the old hands know so well they forget to ask the obvious questions of a newbie. Can someone recommend a url, or a good book that teaches all this stuff? -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.

Trouble Connecting to WPA network
I'm using networkmanager 0.62 on Ubuntu Dapper, and am having trouble to connect to my school's wireless network, which uses WPA encryption.I cannot get NM to connect solely via gui, but running wpa_supplicant at the commandline made the network appear in the NM applet, and then I could connect to it fine.
However, I would like to get this working without needing to use the commandlinethe following is the conf file that will successfully connect to my network: (w/o my username and password)ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
eapol_version=1ap_scan=2fast_reauth=1network={ ssid=UofL_Auth proto=RSN key_mgmt=IEEE8021X auth_alg=OPEN eap=TTLS pairwise=CCMP
group=CCMP anonymous_identity=anonymous #Ulink user ID and password go here identity=xxx password=yyy phase2=auth=PAP
priority=4}how should i put this into nm-applet?also, is there a way to save the profile, so I don't have to put this info in every time?-- Zach Tibbitts -

That sounds really nice, I am getting more and more happy as a linux user, and I think it is time to dig more into this dbus buisness ... I am using ipw2200 in kernel 2.6.15, that may use the ieee80211 module for encryption. Will an kernel update do the trick ? You likely need to get the enc_capa patch for the ipw2200 driver to tell NetworkManager that the card actually does support WPA.

Note that the zd1211 driver is fairly immature and likely won't work correctly with NetworkManager and/or wpa_supplicant for a while yet. It is, however, under active development and should become quite workable fairly soon.

Re: Trouble Connecting to WPA network
Hello,I must say your at least the thid person who's reported not being able to connect to a wireless AP after entering the connection information once.Perhaps there is an issue with NM connecting to wpa_supplicant? can you try and next time before you connect to the AP, type iwlist your wireless interface scan and see if the wireless AP appears in that list...
