OK, this is apparently an ipw2200 problem, not a NetworkManager problem. I installed NM on my other laptop, which has ndiswrapper set up for that prism54 card I mentioned, and it worked perfectly. On the WPA network, it prompted for a password and WPA was the *only* option in the security dropdown, just as it should be. (On the WPA2 network I got the "not supported by hardware" error, but with the prism54 that's actually true.)
Judging by to [1], you're probably right that I just need a newer version of the driver. I'll try patching it in for now; hopefully kernel 2.6.17 will come with ipw2200-1.1.0 out-of-the-box. Thanks for your help. [1] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2006-March/msg00120.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
