Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I have a Compaq N620c Notebook.
I use a Netgear WG511v1 card, (ISL 3890)
I have just upgraded to Feisty from Edgy.
In edgy, my card wouldn't work with the standard driver, so
I used ndiswrapper. This setup worked fine with Network Manager,
and I was able to connect to WPA protected networks.
After upgrading to Feisty, I have tried to connect to WPA protected network,
but it was failing.
I removed my ndiswrappr config to let the kernel figure out what driver to
load,
and with the new kernel my card now loads:
prism54pci 12288 0
prism54common 11392 1 prism54pci
mac80211 172804 3 rc80211_simple,prism54pci,prism54common

When attempting to connect using Network Manager I get the message:
"The requested wireless network requires security capabilities unsupported by
your hardware."
When I disable the network manager and use wpa_supplicant I get the following
result:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -i wlan0 -c StarNet.wpa.conf -K

This appears to work.
I run dhclient and I get an IP address on the network.
Here are some details about my setup:
