[Bug 342183] New: NetworkManager: no connect to WPA AP, wpa_supplicant not started
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=342183 Summary: NetworkManager: no connect to WPA AP, wpa_supplicant not started Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer On an FSC Amilo Si1520 running openSuSE 10.3.1 (GNOME) with Intel ipw3945 WLAN NetworkManager fails to connect after update from factory. dmesg has: [ 33.244982] wlan0 renamed to wlan0_rename while in fact it is renamed to wlan0_rename_re which might be the cause. Starting wpa_supplicant manually and connecting via wpa_gui connects, alas the connection can not be used as NetworkManager seems to prohibit binding. Not sure why NetworkManager is compulsory now, I had removed it in 10.3 and started wpa_supplicant during boot via a script. This seems no longer possible, as yast2 network insists on installing NetworkManager when configuring the network Card. cat /etc/SuSE-release openSUSE 10.3.1 (i586) Alpha0 VERSION = 10.3.1 rpm -qa | grep network yast2-network-2.16.7-2 rpm -qa | grep Network NetworkManager-0.6.5-36 NetworkManager-gnome-0.6.5-36 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Programmer <casualprogrammer@yahoo.com> 2007-11-16 07:57:26 MST --- After fixing /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan0_rename_re ( the yast2 network card setup had put the psk in the WIRELESS_KEY field rather than WIRELESS_WPA_PSK and marked it as Hex value by prefixing h: for eth1 as well as set AUTH_MODE to open rather than psk) wpa_supplicant is started and connects to the AP ( you can verify that with wpa_gui ), yet no bind takes place, probably due to the above error. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Programmer <casualprogrammer@yahoo.com> 2007-12-14 10:32:51 MST --- While this is probably related to Bug 309081, it seems that it is getting worse, although various claims have been put forward as to the issue having been fixed. This is ridiculous! While every effort is undertaken to establish a completely broken iwl3945 support at the same time the flawless working ipw3945 support gets crippled as well. As of todays update from factory ipw3945 is no longer installable, respectively gets removed when updating the Kernel. I think it's about time somebody gets this fixed ASAP. dmesg shows: wlan0_rename renamed to wlan0_rename_re IA-32 Microcode Update Driver: v1.14a <tigran@aivazian.fsnet.co.uk> powernow: This module only works with AMD K7 CPUs e100: eth0: e100_watchdog: link up, 100Mbps, full-duplex iwl3945: Microcode SW error detected.

It's pretty old (opened 2007-11-16 ) and I switched back to ipw3945 since, which is working nicely for me. I think iwl3945 (AKA iwlwifi) is still not running properly but I am not going to waste more time on it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As I pointed out elsewhere already the intellinux project ( http://intellinuxwireless.org/?p=iwlwifi ) considers iwlwifi: "NOTE: The iwlwifi driver is a development driver. If you are looking for a fully validated and stable driver, please visit the Intel Customer Support download page." So, as far as I am concerned, there is no room for it in a final distribution. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
