Hi Jonathan,
Since iwconfig, and iwlist work, this really looks like a bug with
network-manager.
64studio is based on Ubuntu Hardy, which is why you get version 0.6.6.
I've filed a ticket to backport nm-0.7.1 to 64studio
( http://trac.64studio.com/64studio/ticket/515 ) but it would be great
to k

I have not tried 64studio 3b3 yet, but on recent debian it's called
/etc/init.d/network-manager

Well, Gustin, I'm not sure what distro you're advising me on, but it's
not 64studio 3b3 :-) There is no /etc/init.d/NetworkManager at all. I
did try disabling the new module as you suggested, but now the wifi
hardware isn't seen in Network Manager at all.
Perhaps I'm using the wrong kernel?

Try this:
Temporarily change your AP to not require security (for testing only,
you do not want this long term).
sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManger stop
sudo if

Hi,
You can always install madwifi-tools from source.
You will need the kernel headers and various -dev packages to compile
though.

Not sure if this is a red herring... I think this is the same behaviour
I got when I installed 3.0b3 (and 2.1 for that matter) before I
installed the driver firmware for my chipset (iwl3945 in my case). After
installing on the wire and restarting it was recognised correctly.

Hi,
Your ifconfig says it is a wlan0 device so it's quite strange that
gnome says it is a wired 802.1x wired network.
What messages do you get if you attempt to connect?
Cheers.

Greetings. I have just installed 3.0b3 into my old Toshiba laptop. All
is very well so far, except that the Atheros AR5212/AR5213 wifi is
detected as a wired, not wireless, interface, and so the wireless
network detection system isn't being engaged. What can I do to help?
