Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.5-4
Severity: normal
I am trying to connect to a WPA encrypted network with NetworkManager, but it
won't work. I found the following lines in /var/log/daemon.log, which might
contain a hint of what is going on:
Jan 21 10:02:35 bird NetworkManager: <debug> [1200927755.578822] nm_device_802_11_wireless_get_activation_ap(): Forcing AP 'wireless_network'

Jan 21 10:03:03 bird NetworkManager: <WARN> real_act_stage2_config(): Activation (eth2/wireless): couldn't connect to the supplicant.
I am using the ipw3945 intel wireless driver. Below the complete
/var/log/daemon.log of NetworkManager trying to connect:
