Somebody on the Gnome Bugzilla with the same problem posted this: "Similar problem here, also on an ibook g4 with the bcm43xx driver (debian sid).
- using wpa_supplicant : it works fine. - NetworkManager + entering the "ascii plaintext" password in the dialogue box : doesn't works. - NetworkManager + entering the "hexadecimal string" (generated using the same password and wpa_passphrase) : it works. It seems to be a endianess problem, because it works fine with the same settings (same WPA network+password, debian sid) on a x86 laptop". I'm not able to test this at this time, but everything else would seem to point to it being an endianness issue. After all, the only reason I (and others) thought the bug was specific to bcm43xx was because that's the card that the iBook uses... but it could just be an endianness issue affecting PowerPC only. -- WPA doesn't work with NetworkManager using the bcm43xx driver (works with wpa_supplicant) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/101857 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
