Because I work on networking software, I am not online 24/7 and do not always respond to email every day. If I'm in the middle of fixing up some large changes or (in this case, debugging dbus permissions issues with VPN plugins that requires a lot or rebuild/reboot cycles) I may not check email until later in the day, and then other mails might require faster replies. I do not channel work email to a Blackberry. Chill out. The error about supplicant manager state is not important, as the supplicant later transitions to idle/ready state and NM proceeds. What *is* important is the inability of the driver to perform scans, which means that no scan list is available for the supplicant to work with, and thus it cannot associate with any known AP. What we want now is driver debugging information about *why* the driver refuses to perform scans.
