I strongly DISAGREE ! this bug is one bug only. Its a bug report for
people that are trying to wirelessly connect to hidden SSID's , and
can't. Thats all this bug is about. if you cannot cannot to a hidden
SSID then this is where it should be reported. just because you have a
different chipset than the next guy makes no difference.  Developers may
choose to consider each chipset a different bug report, but do not make
it a hassle for users to report their bugs.

By trying to open a new bug report for each chipset hides the fact that
no one can connect to a hidden SSID and THAT is common to all the people
here.  it also makes it hard to see that Ubuntu has known about this
wireless problem for over 2 years now and does not appear to be any
closer to fixing now. there is only only thing that will happen if this
bug starts to get reported as some other bug, it won't get fixed.  To
follow the suggestion above will only server to keep this as an isolated
bug for individual wireless users. This 2 year old bug shows that many
many users are having this issue, I tried to get this bug addresed for
hardy 8.04 by sending emails to any dev emails I could find but all I
got was ignored. THIS BUG NEEDS to be addressed and should be given top
priority as it is a security risk !
