We probably don't need too much more guessing about whether it's network manager or wpa_supplicant, etc.. for those who are reporting similarity to the original reporter the following experience is the common bond: - *can* connect using Atheros h/w to a protected or unprotected network using non-Network Manager tools - *cannot* connect using Atheros h/w to a protected or unprotected network using Network Manager
It's as simple as that--and if you have yet-another-experience, Ubuntu devs will usually ask you to open another bug so it can be dealt with as a different issue..that makes these bugs less cluttered with commentary of why someone does or doesn't experience the same thing as the reporter. Bottom line: different experience probably means, open a different bug. I think the fact that 0.6.5-gutsy-era NM works and 0.6.6-hardy-era NM doesn't work is another good data point mentioned--since if you look at prior bugs in this space you notice a lot of monkeying with timeouts, and the original reporter's log from NM shows auth timeouts, it might be good to look at that area of changes in 0.6.5 to see if 0.6.6 isn't carrying the same changes that Alexander put into 0.6.5. But, this is where we need some dev. input or someone who is willing to look into the timeout issue with 0.6.6 and compare to 0.6.5. If I get some free time I might do some code inspection in this area, but it may not be until next week. -- [madwifi] NetworkManager 0.6.6-0ubuntu1 fails to connect to wireless network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/199802 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
