** Description changed:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 8.10 Release Candidate (live CD) -
ubuntu-8.10-rc-desktop-i386.iso
My hardware: Thinkpad T60p with an Atheros wireless Mini-PCI express card
(AR5BXB6 chipset == AR5006EX).
What happened: I launched Ubuntu from the live CD and tried connecting to the
wireless network of my university, by selecting the corresponding SSID through
the Network Manager. My university uses a TLS EAP ("WPA 2 Entreprise") and .pem
certificates. I filled out all the forms, and selected the correct certificates
that were stored on my hard-drive (I have checked them with the
"openssl verify CAfile ca-x.pem cl-x.pem" command).
The "Connect" button remained grayed out, clicking on it didn't work.
What I expected: That the connect button was not grayed out after I
completed the fields. Or at least that there is a tip that indicates why
the button is grayed out, and why it won't even try to connect.
Reproducing with the terminal (output):

The Invalid connection and <WARN> "WARNING" messages appear when I click on
my university's SSID in the network manager.
The "CRITICAL" messages appear when I type in the four letters of my Private
key password.
+ The normal user and sudo user outputs look simillar.
