I deny that it works for me. I am using ipw3945 to connect to an AP
WITHOUT any WEP or WPA, so maybe it's a different bug. But the point is,
nm-applet can not join networks UNLESS I RUN IT AS ROOT. Then it can
attach as it is supposed to. Otherwise, I have to sudo dhclient eth1 (my
ipw3945 lives there.) I just updated today. I see this bug is still
open. Maybe my problem is different, but my description is identical...
eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"Wireless"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:0F:CC:29:A6:78
Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Tx-Power:15 dBm
Retry limit:15 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=81/100 Signal level=-57 dBm Noise level=-57 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:157 Missed beacon:0
It's in a hotel, this is not my imaginative ESSID. Doesn't work at home
associating to my 802.11b Linksys either (WAP11 or something like that,
I forget, I'm not there right now.)
Attached is a daemon.log from the last time I tried it and failed a
bunch of times. Right now I have it running as root (and working
correctly.)
