Bug Description
I upgraded to ubuntu 12.04 a few days ago, and lost the ability to connect to my works wpa2-enterprise network. I just had the chance to reboot off of a 11.10 live CD to verify that 11.10 works, and thus that it is not some problem with the wireless network.
Looking at wireshark, 12.04 sends a Client Hello which the AP reponds to with "Alert (Level: Fatal, Description: Bad Certificate)" while 11.10 seems to accept the Client Hello message.
I upped wpasupplicant to debug log level on both attempts and am attaching the part of syslog where I was attempting to connect to the access point.
The question
https:/
looked similar, but their workaround of upgrading the firmware seemed unlikely after I checked that both 11.10 and 12.04 are using the same firmware version.
I'm using a thinkpad with an intel wireless card:

Actually I think I attached the bug to the wrong component... I suspect the problem is actually with wpasupplicant, but I don't know how to adjust the bug.
