Package: madwifi-source Version: 1:0.9.2+r1842.20061207-2 Severity: important
Recent versions of madwifi-source appear to no longer work with network-manager; it can see the networks fine but is unable to associate with them. If I disable network manager and configure manually with iwconfig things work fine. The last version I have that works fine is madwifi-modules-2.6.18_0.svnr1644.0.9.0-2. I have also tried: madwifi-modules-2.6.18_0.9.2+r1710.20060914-1 madwifi-modules-2.6.18_0.9.2+r1784.20061027-1 madwifi-modules-2.6.18_0.9.2+r1809.20061115-1 madwifi-modules-2.6.18_0.9.2+r1842.20061207-1 All built against 2.6.18 obviously. I have also tried the 0.9.2.1 release direct from Madwifi, so this appears to be an upstream bug. Others seem to be affected; there is a thread on madwifi-user at: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.madwifi.user/11870/ (I have cc'd Carlos to this bug report as his report was the only one I could find, but there was no indication of it in the Debian bug database). There is also an upstream bug at: http://madwifi.org/ticket/1030 I am filing the Debian bug because that is the first place I looked for information and I feel it would be useful to have mention of the issue there. Also as an additional datapoint my home network is WEP connected and wpa_supplicant still doesn't work (the upstream bug talks about non-encrypted networks). Finally my hardware is the internal Atheros card in my Toshiba R200 laptop. lspci / lspci -n give: 02:05.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc.
