In case anyone is interested, here is a workaround found for ipw2200 and
gutsy. I found these instructions in some ipw2200 forum, and they DO
work! Just add ap_scan=2 and an explicit key_mgmt= line in your
/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf file.
Example:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=admin
ap_scan=2 # mandatory for hidden ssid with ipw2200!
network={
ssid="yourhiddenssid"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK # mandatory for hidden ssid with ipw2200!
psk="whatever"
}
Check ipw2200 resources for more details.
All software used is 100% gutsy, no patches of any kind.
Sorry, I do not know how to feed network manager with a wpa_supplicant
configuration file.
