Hi all, sorry for crossposting but I'm not sure where the problem, if any, could possibly be. Basically, I'm facing a weird issue with wpa_supplicant 0.7.3 / 0.8 snapshot compiled 06/04/2011 , here the description and the environment: wpa supplicant 0.7.3 (gentoo package wpa_supplicant-0.7.3-r1) linux 2.6.36.1 Tested also with wpa_supplicant 0.8 snapshot and kernels 2.6.37 - 2.6.38.2 hardware: HP elitebook 8440p iwlagn 0000:44:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Centrino(R) Advanced-N 6200 AGN, REV=0x74 iwlagn 0000:44:00.0: loaded firmware version 9.221.4.1 build 25532 Description: basically, when wpa_supplicant starts it is unable to speak with hardware, no commands have effect (i.e. scan) and the only message I get is the usual ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready (of course rfkill is off) the scan window (wpa_gui) or scan result (wpa_cli) is empty, no matter how many scans I request. but if I issue a iwlist wlan0 scan I get all networks active in my area and after some second all networks appears on wpa_gui and suddenly wpa_supplicant completes the authentication and I'm able to get the ip address. I don't know if the problem is wpa not issuing the right commands or drivers/kernel acting in a strange way or something else, my knowledge on this is really low. I've tried to debug this issue without success and also googling didn't helped me; I will be grateful if someone gives me some hint, at least where to look; of course I'm available to do any test/debug that could be needed.
