Hmm. There do need to be a few patches for wpa_supplicant 0.4.8, namely: a) Don't show WEP keys in debug messages http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-ctrl-iface-hide-keys.patch?rev=1.1&view=log b) Enable the AP_SCAN option in the control interface (already in wpa_supplicant 0.5) http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-ctrl-iface-ap-scan.patch?rev=1.3&view=log c) Make sure drivers that don't fully support WPA work http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-auth-fallback-v4.patch?rev=1.1&view=log d) Don't set a really low timeout for cards that don't fully support WPA http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-assoc-timeout.patch?rev=1.1&view=log You'll need to also have these directories: /var/run/NetworkManager/ /var/run/wpa_supplicant/ These should really be set up by your distro, but our 'make install' process should really be setting them up too.
