Hello list, I had some trouble connecting via wireless on my F7-x86_64 setup after I had run updates, which included wpa_supplicant version 1:0.5.7-4.fc7. It took a while to narrow down the problem. I could use commandline tools to connect to unprotected routers without using wpa_supplicant, and ultimately I noticed this if I restarted the wpa_supplicant service: Stopping wpa_supplicant: [ OK ] Starting wpa_supplicant: /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, -iwlan0, -DwextSIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device Could not set interface 'wlan0' UP ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported WEXT auth param 5 value 0x1 - [ OK ] So while there were errors during bootup as well, the service apparently starts 'ok', and the startup progress interface didn't display the details. After I reverted to the original version of wpa_supplicant that came with F7 (0.5.7-2), everything works fine again. Is this just a bug that will likely go away in future versions of wpa_supplicant? I'm using the b43 driver with a bcm4309 wireless chip...which has worked fairly well other than this new problem.
