Hi
I've install wpa_supplicant.conf the into /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ the good directory :
dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant /fi/epitest/hostap/WPASupplicant fi.epitest.hostap.WPASupplicant.getInterface string:ra0
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 0

but it seems that a problem with my card card : 01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101E/RTL8102E PCI Express Fast Ethernet controller (rev 02) 
and wpa
With an other chipset (intel) that works. I will search thanks for your help.
