Description Michael 2009-01-29 17:59:46 UTC
Recently wpa_supplicant 0.6.4 (I think) was put out of ~arch to stable in amd64. But since I updated, I fail to connect to two different WPA2 Enterprise networks at my university.

I use Networkmanager 0.6x with an intel wireless pro 4965 card, kernel gentoo-sources-2.6.28-r1

messages log does not show too much useful information. Please help me to point out log files that I could append to this bugreport.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Networkmanager fails to connect to WPA2 Network

FYI the latest wpa_supplicant development release is:

http://hostap.epitest.fi/releases/wpa_supplicant-0.6.7.tar.gz.

Works fine here, but I'm using WPA and not WPA2, but it might be worth giving it a try.
