Hi, I have found an weird issue. I'm double posting (I know this is not proper nettiquette), but the issue seems to fall squarely between the 2 lists.
IBM Thinkpad A30 Prism 2.5 card Kubuntu & Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy) package: hostap-utils v1:0.4.0-1 package: network-manager v0.6.3-2ubuntu6 hostap fails to create an adapter when loaded, unless i also install the network-manager-gnome (maybe just network-manager (although I never tried)). That is, if I do a fresh install of either Ubuntu or Kubuntu, then aptitude upgrade, install hostap-utils, blacklist orinoco_pci, orinoco, prism2_pci, and reboot. When the box comes up I only have eth0 and lo adapters under ifconfig. Then I install network-manager-gnome. rmmod hostap_pci, hostap, modprobe hostap, hostap_pci (or just reboot) and I get all the proper adapters and can connect to a WPA2 ap. It seems like something is missing from the hostap-utils distribution, or some other weird interaction is going on.
