Everything's set up properly AFAICT, and WiFi connects fine with NetworkManager, but if I disconnect and try to reconnect manually with wpa_supplicant, I get the following error: ]# wpa_supplicant \ -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf \ -i eth1 \ -D ndiswrapper "Association request to the driver failed" The full log is here: http://www.genesis-x.nildram.co.uk/filez/wpa.log.txt The wpa_supplicant.conf looks like this: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=wheel network={ ssid="Genesis-WiFi" key_mgmt=WPA-PSK proto=WPA pairwise=TKIP group=TKIP psk=********* } I'm using the bcmwl5 (Broadcom) ndiswrapper driver, on FC5 x86_64. Like I said, WiFi *does* work (when activated using NetworkManager), but manually running wpa_supplicant fails. Also "service wpa_supplicant start" just produces a heap of errors like: Starting wpa_supplicant: ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: No such device ioctl[SIOCSIWMODE]: No such device Could not configure driver to use managed mode ioctl[SIOCGIFFLAGS]: No such device Could not set interface 'wlan0' UP How do I specify the device and interface in the wpa_supplicant configuration file, for the benefit of starting it as a service? The man page says nothing about that. -- K. http://slated.org - Slated, Rated & Blogged .---- | Gates' Law: Every 18 months, the speed of software halves. `---- Fedora Core release 5 (Bordeaux) on sky, running kernel 2.6.16-1.2133_FC5 02:48:23 up 116 days, 3:05, 4 users, load average: 0.67, 0.33, 0.42
