No, the wireless interface isn't configured in /etc/network/interfaces, if i do that, and use wpa_supplicant directly works flawlessly, and of course being configured that way the wireless interface isn't visible to network-manager
currently the interfaces file contain the following related to the wireless card: auto ath0 iface ath0 inet dhcp # name Atheros Wireless card # wpa-ssid Mordor # wpa-driver madwifi # wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf but i try even without any reference to this card included in this file. I think the problem could be for example how network-manager load the key file which require a password to be load, maybe the file is loaded before the key file's password is asked to gnome-keyring, i don't know this is just an hypothesis without any foundation. -- [gutsy] network-manager i have to manually configure wpa/2 enterprise every time to connect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132473 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
