Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.5-1
Severity: important


Since upgrading network manager to 0.6.5-1, the gnome applet fails to
recognise the wireless network is connected on boot.  Because it doesn't
realise the connection is active, it never requests a DHCP address.

The little wireless light indicates that the laptop is associated with
the AP, and iwconfig confirms this, but the n-m applet has the spinning
logo that indicates it's trying to associate.

Running "ifup wlan0" will cause the laptop to grab an address and I can
use the network as expected, but n-m never realises the connection is
active.

Sometimes if I manually tell the laptop to disassociate (by using iwconfig
to change the ssid to something that doesn't exist) then n-m will manage
to reconnect to the original AP and then start the DHCP process.

The AP is unencrypted and uses MAC address locking.
