Bug Description
Regression for intrepid; since alpha 6.
No scan results for wifi: NM doesn't show any network. Everything worked fine with alpha 5 and kernel 2.6.27-2. If I boot with hardy kernel, NM detects the different access points but DHCP doesn't work and I need to configure the IP address manually.

The upgrade to 2.6.27-4 doesn't resolve the problem
