Subject: wpasupplicant: "wpa-driver wext" does not work for madwifi Package: wpasupplicant Version: 0.5.4-5 Severity: minor
*** Please type your report below this line *** I use the madwifi driver for my atheros wireless card. wpasupplicant's documentation suggests that the line "wpa-driver wext" (or NO such line) in /etc/network/interfaces should work. This seems not to be true. wpa_supplicant gets only connected with "wpa-driver madwifi" in /etc/network/interfaces.
