Any reason you didn't install opensuse 10.2 on it? Wireless on network
manager is a lot simpler on 10.2...
Just a stab in the dark, try putting your actual passphrase for 'psk',
instead of the hex encoded version. Just for kicks... (noticed
something like this a while back when I was running openwrt on my wrt54g
v3).
Anyway, you shouldn't have to worry about this stuff on 10.2, as it's
pretty seamless.
