I had the same problem -- it was because of an update to wpa_supplicant. Rolling back to the older wpa_supplicant-0.4.8-10.fc5.i386.rpm fixed the problem. The version of supplicant where the problem appears is wpa_supplicant-0.4.9-13.fc5.at The relevant syslog messages are: Aug 30 03:12:45 seshat NetworkManager: <information> Activation (eth1) started...
