Bug Description
I recently updated to from 8.10 to 9.04 beta which went pretty flawless.
The only thing is: when I boot the system, my WLAN card does not automatically connect to my access point.
The interface goes up and wpa_supplicant runs but no connection to the access point is made.
"wpa_cli status" shows this:
Selected interface 'wlan0'
wpa_state=INACTIVE
ip_address=
I'm not sure if this is a bug in wireless-tools or in wpasupplicant.
wireless-tools is version 29-1.1ubuntu2, wpasupplicant is version 0.6.6-2.
When I run "/etc/init.
The wlan0 stanza in my interfaces file looks like this;
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
network 192.168.1.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 192.168.1.255
gateway 192.168.1.1
wpa-driver wext
wpa-ssid WLAN
wpa-psk 12345
