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,
