I just add the startup for wpa_supplicant before the startup of the network interfaces. The default is at timeslot 12, it really needs be at timeslot 9 to be before the ifup_XXN calls. --- /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant~ 2006-05-03 07:57:47.000000000 -0700 +++ /etc/rc.d/init.d/wpa_supplicant 2006-05-16 15:39:50.000000000 -0700 @@ -2,7 +2,8 @@ # # wpa_supplicant # -# chkconfig: - 12 88 +# XXX wsr: was: - 12 88 +# chkconfig: - 09 88 # description: wpa_supplicant is a WPA Supplicant for Linux, BSD and \ # Windows with support for WPA and WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i / RSN).

I have had it set up like this for a few months now and it works fine both with madwifi and ndiswrapper (for my bcm4319 card). The only problem is whenever the kernel changes and livna doesn't offer the updated madwifi drivers in time. -wolfgang -- Wolfgang S.
