Fedora 7 broke the automatic ath0/wpa_supplicant startup. It is still possible to get the network working by restarting wpa_supplicant, doing an ifconfig down/up on ath0, and then restarting ntpd (which fails in a way that causes it not to recover). Does anyone have fedora-7 booting with an automatic wpa wifi connection yet? What is the secret? In fact, just some insight into what is going on with wpa_supplicant would be appreciated. Under fc6 (and fc5) one could start wpa_supplicant before the network startup and have ath0 correctly associate with the AP. Now starting wpa_supplicant just before the network startup causes it to retry associating in an infinite loop with no success. Restarting it via "service wpa_supplicant restart " causes it to associate immediately. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
