OK. The nl80211 driver and crda were working fine for me in my test today, see attached output in comment 2.
The question is, if it is safe to switch from 'wext' to the new 'nl80211'.
I have tested the nl80211 with Factory and Intel 5100. For iwlagn it works. I would suggest that you switch the script to nl80211 at least for the Intel cards (iwl*) and we will fix it on the fly if something goes wrong and people report problems.
I put [1] into your script, but "./ifup-wireless wlan0" did not start wpa_supplicant. I was not able to run it out of the box so please tell me how do you intend to use the ifup-wireless.
Just call "yast2 network" and configure the wireless interface there. The ifup-wireless script is a script called via "ifup","ifdown" and "ifstatus" and "rcnetwork" in traditional mode (NETWORKMANAGER=no).
I have tested the nl82011 by setting the AP via iwconfig, started wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd from command-line.

OK, then let's collect it a little bit. For me ath5k works fine too. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
