Subject: [bisected] Wireless regression in 2.6.32-git
Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2009 15:18:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090927151855.29efcc53@infradead.org> (raw)
Hi,
With todays git my laptop fails to associate with my access point.
Bisection points to the commit below, and reverting this one commit on
the HEAD of tree also fixes the issue, so I'm pretty confident that this
commit is to blame.
I have a 4965 wifi card in my laptop, and the network I'm trying to
connect to has no encryption. I'm running Fedora 11 as OS.
I would like to kindly request for this commit to be reverted until a
more permanent solution is found (I'm happy to test any patches)..
94f85853324e02c3a32bc3101f090dc9a3f512b4 is first bad commit

cfg80211: don't overwrite privacy setting
When cfg80211 is instructed to connect, it always
uses the default WEP key for the privacy setting,
which clearly is wrong when using wpa_supplicant.
Don't overwrite the setting, and rely on it being
false when wpa_supplicant is not running, instead
set it to true when we have keys.
