2013-11-04 23:16:57 Adam Smith description Please include the attached patch in the next update to wpasupplicant in Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise). The patch is based on this upstream commit http://w1.fi/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=hostap-1.git;a=commitdiff;h=42f93a9a0f1858ba8492a1349515624965a64e34;hp=5045a668201f1027dbcc91bd8d092bbcee15a2e3 The version of wpasupplicant currently in precise (and oneiric had the same problem) has the following bug: To reproduce: 1. connect to a wireless network by clicking on the name in the applet. 2. check that the connection works. 3. see that there is no network listed on "Wireless Networks" in the applet. (Although the "Disconnect" words are there and functional.) 4. see that the signal strength is apparantly empty on the applet icon. (Yet the signal strength is actually quit strong.) 5. check nmcli command and see that signal strength always shows 100 and frequency 0. Applying the patch to wpasupplicant 0.7.3-6ubuntu2.1 fixes the problem. Before finding this patch I've had to work around the problem by installing wicd. Thanks Please include the attached patch in the next update to wpasupplicant in Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise). The patch is based on this upstream commit http://w1.fi/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=hostap-1.git;a=commitdiff;h=42f93a9a0f1858ba8492a1349515624965a64e34;hp=5045a668201f1027dbcc91bd8d092bbcee15a2e3 The version of wpasupplicant currently in precise (and oneiric had the same problem) has the following PowerPC bug: To reproduce: 1. connect to a wireless network by clicking on the name in the applet. 2. check that the connection works. 3. see that there is no network listed on "Wireless Networks" in the applet. (Although the "Disconnect" words are there and functional.) 4. see that the signal strength is apparantly empty on the applet icon. (Yet the signal strength is actually quit strong.) 5. check nmcli command and see that signal strength always shows 100 and frequency 0. Applying the patch to wpasupplicant 0.7.3-6ubuntu2.1 fixes the problem (on my PowerPC G4 iBook). Before finding this patch I've had to work around the problem by installing wicd. Thanks
