Comment 0 for bug 862684

On a fresh 11.10-beta2 install, with the 'Belkin N150 Surf' usb NIC, which uses driver rtl8192cu, network-manager freezes randomly with the message 'Configuring Interface'. After trying it with wicd, wicd.log shows it may have something to do with wpa_supplicant. It shows WPA_CLI STATUS is ASSOCIATING, and shortly after, WPA_CLI STATUS is SCANNING.
