[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#628064: NetworkManager fails to connect to wireless connections not previously used

[Travis Reitter]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.4.0-1

I'm running unstable with some experimental packages (including Gnome
3). Recently, the NetworkManager applet stopped showing any wireless
networks (Wired and Wireless both just list "invalid" in the nm-applet).
It successfully connects to my home wireless network and wired
connections are fine.

iwlist shows all the wireless networks in the area, and I can manually
connect to them with wpa_supplicant.

dmesg doesn't show anything too obvious; just these lines:

May 22 14:17:06 torizo kernel: [51980.940792] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0:
link is not ready
May 22 14:17:06 torizo kernel: [51981.051730] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP):
wlan0: link is not ready

I'm also using network-manager-gnome 0.8.4-2 and running kernel:
Linux 2.6.39-1-amd64 #1 SMP

My wireless card is:

03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG
[Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)

and I'm using the iwl3945 kernel module.
