Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.6.10-2
Hi, this is what I get after few seconds:
# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Trying to associate with myapmac (SSID='myssid' freq=2412 MHz)
[ 69.506953] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
[ 69.508486] cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: NA
Associated with myapmac
[ 70.504648] padlock: VIA PadLock not detected.
WPA: Key negotiation completed with myapmac [PTK=CCMP GTK=CCMP]
CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to myapmac completed (auth) [id=0 id_str=]
CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys
It does work for just few seconds, then it disconnects... I created
wpa_supplicant.conf with
wpa_passphrase myssid mypassphrase > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
and it's the same config I use on gentoo.
I compiled wpa_supplicant 0.7.2 from source, but nothing changed.
I also upgraded from 2.6.32 (unstable) to 2.6.35 (experimental):
nothing changed.
Networkmanager is not installed. I tried with networkmanager too but
it does not work (it never gets 'active').
I tried with two aps with both wpa2 and wpa.
If I plug the wifi card on a laptop with gentoo it works flawlessly.
