I'm using the bcm43xx built-in kernel driver with the firmware from
my windows driver. It works a treat with Network Manager but I
really want to have this card brought up automatically at startup.
Its a desktop that will only ever connect to the network 'linksys'
that uses wpa-psk encryption if that helps.
Is there a simple, non-interactive way to do this?
Turn off NetworkManager (service NetworkManager stop; chkconfig
NetworkManager off). Then configure the card using
system-config-network.
Does system-config-network support WPA now? I didn't think it did out
of the box. I edited ifup-wireless and created ifdown-wireless in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ to call wpa_supplicant to handle
setting up the WPA connection. If that's been changed now I'd love to
know. :)

Todd,
Can you forward me details on how you edited these scripts to call wpa
supplicant?
Many thanks,
-Chris
