Ok. I believe you that wpa_supplicant does the link detection and
so...but how to tell the pc that wpa_supplicant must be launched when
there is a possible connection...shall I write a script and launch it at
boot ?

I have read all the documentation of the package and I don't find
anything on this subject : how is launched wpa_supplicant ? By me it is
not launched. I must do it myself or enter "ifup eth1".

I don't have any auto eth1...or something like that.
In normal case when my pc is associated to an ap (for example an open
network) ifplugd detects it and launch all. But in the case of ap using
WPA, the pc doesn't associate automaticly...(perhaps there is an option...)
