I did not apply the patch correctly. After doing this, I get wpa_supplicant working, but not really. The output is at http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/wpa.log and at http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/iwevent.log I put the output of iwevent while running wpa_supplicant. Can someone tell me what goes wrong? On IRC, I've got the to build with dscape, but the debian modules do only provide softmac and the only stuff I found for dscape needs a new kernel 2.6.16-rc1.
