hey, had the same issue that chris walkelin describes at comment #79 (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/272185/comments/79 ) while connection to the wireless network at my university (also using eduroam)
i'm not using ubuntu, but it seems that is the same error.

using archlinux 2.6.28
first i tried to connect via network-manager 0.7, but it keeps asking for password.
checked the loaded modules for my usb-wlan-stick (linksys WUSB54GC) and it was rt73usb.

so i blacklisted that module and loaded the linksys with ndiswrapper and windows-drivers from the linksys-homepage.

--> result: works perfectly with that configuration. (connection over nm-applet takes a bit longer, but then connection is stable and fast)

maybe that information can help you solving that problem.
