network-manager-applet does not offer WPA, only WPA2

[Leonard Michlmayr]

I want to connect to a WPA enterprise network (eduroam). The network-manager applet lets me choose between WEP 64/128, WEP 128, and WPA2. It does not offer WPA!

Connecting with the option "WPA2/WPA2 Personal" to the WPA network does not work. (network-manager will keep asking me about the password)

Some additional information: things worked fine with hardy.

I can connect to Eduroam now. It works with WPA2. I've chosen the GTE_CyberTrust_Global_Root certificate from /etc/certificates and tunneled TLS (although the uni says it should be PEAP) for the authentification. Now it works well.
