Network Manager problem connecting to open wireless network.

[Diego González <dggonz gmail com>]

since some weeks ago i have noticed that Network Manager is not able
to connect to the open wireless network available in the place i work,
it tries it but it can't manage it. However if i write (as root) on
the console ifup eth1 everything works, so it must be a NM problem, i
have also changed dhcp3 or dhcbdb.

Today i updated NM from CVS, the error is still there, so i guess this
is a problem if you intend to release shortly.

this is what i get on the logs:
