wicd does not solve the problem for me. Still the WLAN is not working. I have installed wicd and removed the network manager package as requested by ubuntu. Took me some time to realise that one needs to use the synaptic package administration for that. I also de-installed the gnome network manager cause I thought this is the program in question to allow wicd to operate. Now wicd is up and running, but it doesn't find any wireless networks.
However, when I use "networks" under "system", there still is the old game of entering the new password and seeing how it is changed back to another 64-one. So the system does find the network but does not connect due to the password-change issue. I think this is quite a critical issue for using ubuntu. If I can't connect to networks, I can't use the computer. All the other stuff like open office etc. is fine, but I can't invest more time to get my WLAN running. I'm afraid I will have to go back to windows soon. -- [intrepid] alpha 6 - WPA & WPA2 Personal won't authenticate short passwords https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/273336 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
