Title:
  Can't use WPA with ipw2200

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  If some driver implements wext interface and nl80211 interface the
  latter is preferred. With the ipw2200 driver this implementation
  doesn't yield any encryption capabilites but the wext interface is
  never consulted. If the order of the function calls is reversed in
  wifi-utils.c the problem is solved for me and I dont have a regression
  with ath5k.
