I've noticed this with ubuntu about a year ago, and now I see this with redhat(fedora) under wpa_supplicant.log I see: CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx completed (auth) [id=0 id_str=] CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID='XX' freq=2422 MHz) Association request to the driver failed Associated with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx completed (reauth) [id=0 id_str=] CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID='XX' freq=2422 MHz) Association request to the driver failed Associated with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx completed (reauth) [id=0 id_str=] CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID='XX' freq=2422 MHz) Association request to the driver failed Associated with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx the above is caused probably all the time, but not noticeable until heavy load. The system becomes vary sluggish, hulu craps out, radio craps out (not fun)... After disabling NetworkManager and compiling wpa_supplicant from the source(using the default .config they supply for compiling) wpa_supplicant looks like this: [name@name wpa_supplicant]$ sudo /home/name/Sources/wpa_supplicant-0.6.9/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c /home/name/wpa CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS Trying to associate with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (SSID='XX' freq=2422 MHz) ioctl[SIOCSIWAP]: Device or resource busy Association request to the driver failed Associated with xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx completed (auth) [id=0 id_str=] still shows some errors, but I'm able to stream music, plus watch movies without having a sluggish system, nor having stuckage of internet. I would file a bug, but there probably already is, since this is something I've seen for some time now right! Justin P.
