Description Toomas Bergmann 2009-07-01 13:57:05 UTC
User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; et; rv:1.9.1.0) Gecko/20090617 SUSE/3.5.0-2.2 Firefox/3.5

Affects only those who try to use WPA.
Everything works as long as you use no encryption or WEP.

Seems to be related to the same as 
http://www.intellinuxwireless.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1871

But i thought it to be major enough to set it up here, so we don't ship a product with nonworking WPA protected wireless on half of the worlds laptops.

some log messages:

Jul  1 13:45:50 asti kernel: [20701.184334] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1d:b3:4c:90:64

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. find a laptop with 4965 or 5399 intel card 
2. Try to associate with AP with WPA encryption enabled
3. Enjoy the show.
Actual Results:  
Jul  1 13:45:50 asti kernel: [20701.184334] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1d:b3:4c:90:64

And NetworkManager applet tries to get a new password for that connection

Expected Results:  
it should've requested an IP address via DHCP and after receiving that let the NM show it's connected

Solved in factory.

can you please verify if it works in later milestones? it works for others.
Comment 4 Toomas Bergmann 2009-09-22 06:02:00 UTC
Works fine now, yes. Didn't update it as it was thought to be a dup.
Comment 5 Vladimir Botka 2009-09-22 14:36:00 UTC
Closed as FIXED, but reopen if the problem reappears. Thank you.
