Dear list,

I have recently bought a thinkpad edge 64 bits with a realtek 8192.

lspci reports
Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Device 8172 (rev 10)

I have installed ubuntu 9.10 amd64 but Linux does not come with the
driver for this card. The driver is available from

http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=21&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=226&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#2281

The driver compiles without problem but I can not connect to my access
point when network manager is running. If I disable it, I can manually
connect to the access point using the  following wpa.conf


network={
                        ssid="doubidou-net"
                        proto=WPA WPA2
                        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
                        pairwise=CCMP TKIP
                        group=CCMP TKIP
                        psk= "my_secret"
                        priority=2
         }

The following command is used to run wpa_supplicant

	wpa_supplicant -D wext -c wpa.conf -i $interface

I have followed the instructions in http://darrenalbers.com/networkmanager/

 sudo ./nm-supplicant-test wlan0 path_to/wpa.conf > nm-supplicant-test.txt

The output is attached to this mail. The command ends with the error

ioctl[SIOCSIWMLME]: Link has been severed

Could you tell me if I can use this card with network manager?

thanks,
