problems with IPW2200 + NetworkManager cvs



Hi:

   Prepped a new laptop with SUSE 10.0.  It has the Intel PRO/Wireless
2915ABG Card. 

   I downloaded the current NetworkManager from cvs and built it.  Few
hiccups RE: out-of-date wireless tools elements...but
got it built.  It starts up fine.

   The on-board ethernet comes up find via NetworkManager and gets a
dhcp address with no problems.  When I try
getting a connection with the wireless after unplugging the cable
ethernet, the following is dumped into the syslog:

Feb 25 19:42:15 macduff NetworkManager: <information>   Device eth1

Under the drop down menu from the nm-applet, curiously the ESSID for my
access point is not being displayed properly....
looks like it's shopping chars.

Any ideas or suggestions on what's going on?

Wendell MacKenzie
