Re: Association timeout with madwifi

Hi,

I'm using the latest CVS of NetworkManager, the latest development
snapshot of madwifi-ng (r1654) and the latest development snapshot of
wpa_supplicant (0.5.4). When trying to connect to my WPA encrypted
access point this happens:

Is there any way to fix this?


If you figure it out I too would like to know. For me NM never sees my
madwifi card. If I start wpa_supplicant by hand, the card comes up and will
play for days with wpa encryption enabled. If I do not start wpa_supplicant
by hand the card never completes the connection. Unless I plug in a network
cable, the NM icon always shows a circle with a slash through it.

I asked about this problem a few weeks ago, was asked to supply some info
but I never heard anything after I sent the info.

I am running the following versions of nm and wpa_supplicant:
(bullwinkle pts3) $ rpm -qa | grep -i networkmanager
NetworkManager-gnome-0.6.3-1.fc5
NetworkManager-glib-0.6.3-1.fc5
NetworkManager-0.6.3-1.fc5

(bullwinkle pts3) $ rpm -qa | grep -i wpa
wpa_supplicant-0.4.8-10.fc5

(bullwinkle pts3) $ rpm -qa | grep net-tool
net-tools-1.60-62.1

(bullwinkle pts3) $ rpm -qa | grep mad
madwifi-0.1645.20060615-6
madwifi-module-0.1645.20060615-6_2.6.17_1.2139_FC5

This is a fully updated FC5 dell 2650 laptop.

I also see the following in the logs continously:

Jun 28 13:53:27 bullwinkle netplugd[1701]: ath0: ignoring event
Jun 28 13:53:27 bullwinkle netplugd[1701]: No interface name

Jun 28 13:53:30 bullwinkle netplugd[1701]: No interface name

Does the card work for you if you start wpa_supplicant by hand??

Tom
