The nm-supplicant-test is pretty old and probably shouldn't really be used anymore. But Vincent, can you get some supplicant debug logs when running NM, as described here? http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging under the "Debugging WiFi Connections" section. Specifically, we're looking for /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log when you see failures using NetworkManager. Note though that this driver is not part of the upstream kernel, and its quality is highly suspect. Just because it works manually with wpa_supplicant doesn't always mean the driver is OK.

From what I see in your wpa_supplicant log, it never got any scan data, which is why NM also failed. What do you see when you run (as root) iwlist scan You should also post the dmesg output that pertains to this device.

realtek 8172 does not work with networkmanager and wpa on ubuntu 9.10
Dear list, I have recently bought a thinkpad edge 64 bits with a realtek 8192. lspci reports Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 8172 (rev 10) I have installed ubuntu 9.10 amd64 but Linux does not come with the driver for this card. The driver is available from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=226&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#2281 The driver compiles without problem but I can not connect to my access point when network manager is running. If I disable it, I can manually connect to the access point using the following wpa.conf network={ ssid="doubidou-net" proto=WPA WPA2 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK pairwise=CCMP TKIP group=CCMP TKIP psk= "my_secret" priority=2 } The following command is used to run wpa_supplicant wpa_supplicant -D wext -c wpa.conf -i $interface I have followed the instructions in http://darrenalbers.com/networkmanager/ sudo ./nm-supplicant-test wlan0 path_to/wpa.conf > nm-supplicant-test.txt The output is attached to this mail. The command ends with the error ioctl[SIOCSIWMLME]: Link has been severed Could you tell me if I can use this card with network manager? thanks, Key: ssid, Value: "doubidou-net" Key: proto, Value: WPA WPA2 Key: key_mgmt, Value: WPA-PSK Key: pairwise, Value: CCMP TKIP Key: group, Value: CCMP TKIP Key: psk, Value: "my_secret" Key: priority, Value: 2 SUP: sending command 'INTERFACE_ADD wlan0 wext /var/run/wpa_supplicant ' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'AP_SCAN 2' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'ADD_NETWORK' SUP: response was '0' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 ssid "doubidou-net"' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 proto WPA WPA2' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 key_mgmt WPA-PSK' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 pairwise CCMP TKIP' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 group CCMP TKIP' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 psk "my_secret"' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'SET_NETWORK 0 priority 2' SUP: response was 'OK' SUP: sending command 'ENABLE_NETWORK 0' SUP: response was 'OK' wpa_supplicant(6330): Global control interface '/var/run/wpa_supplicant-global' wpa_supplicant(6330): RX global ctrl_iface - hexdump_ascii(len=50): wpa_supplicant(6330): 49 4e 54 45 52 46 41 43 45 5f 41 44 44 20 77 6c INTERFACE_ADD wl wpa_supplicant(6330): 61 6e 30 09 09 77 65 78 74 09 2f 76 61 72 2f 72 an0__wext_/var/r wpa_supplicant(6330): 75 6e 2f 77 70 61 5f 73 75 70 70 6c 69 63 61 6e un/wpa_supplican wpa_supplicant(6330): 74 09 t_ wpa_supplicant(6330): CTRL_IFACE GLOBAL INTERFACE_ADD 'wlan0wext /var/run/wpa_supplicant ' wpa_supplicant(6330): Initializing interface 'wlan0' conf 'N/A' driver 'wext' ctrl_interface '/var/run/wpa_supplicant' bridge 'N/A' wpa_supplicant(6330): Interface wlan0 set UP - waiting a second for the driver to complete initialization wpa_supplicant(6330): SIOCGIWRANGE: WE(compiled)=22 WE(source)=18 enc_capa=0xf wpa_supplicant(6330): capabilities: key_mgmt 0xf enc 0xf flags 0x0 wpa_supplicant(6330): WEXT: Operstate: linkmode=1, operstate=5 wpa_supplicant(6330): Own MAC address: 70:1a:04:8e:23:86 wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_wpa wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_key: alg=0 key_idx=0 set_tx=0 seq_len=0 key_len=0 wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_key: alg=0 key_idx=1 set_tx=0 seq_len=0 key_len=0 wpa_supplicant(6330): y: alg=0 key_idx=2 set_tx=0 seq_len=0 key_len=0 wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_key: alg=0 key_idx=3 set_tx=0 seq_len=0 key_len=0 wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_countermeasures wpa_supplicant(6330): wpa_driver_wext_set_drop_unencrypted wpa_supplicant(6330): RSN: flushing PMKID list in the driver wpa_supplicant(6330): Setting scan request: 0 sec 10 usec wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: UUID based on MAC address - hexdump(len=16): 5e ab 3f 6b b7 44 5a cf 9f da cc 81 eb 14 52 31 wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: Build Beacon and Probe Response IEs wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Version wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Wi-Fi Protected Setup State (0) wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Version wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Wi-Fi Protected Setup State (0) wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Response Type (2) wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * UUID-E wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Manufacturer wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Model Name wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Model Number wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Serial Number wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Primary Device Type wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Device Name wpa_supplicant(6330): WPS: * Config Methods (0) wpa_supplica
