Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Hello,
since upgrade to hardy, which is otherwise quite stable, I am having problems with my Network Manager to work. I try to connect to HIDDEN and VISIBLE SSID's with mixed results. Many times log gives me:
retry to connect to global supplicant socket (try=9)
or messages saying NEW KEY WAS REQUESTED, but I do not see any dialog. With NetworkManager Applet I can connect fine to OPEN (UNENCRYPTED) networks always fine. Some of my previously working configurations ('AP1' is hidden but was added in Gutsy and is visible when network in reach) works on third time when I connect.
I have to double check my companys network which is WPA-PSK but VISIBLE tomorrow, but I believe it is the same.
To some networks (HIDDEN ESSID + WEP 128Bit ASCII) which was formely visible while in range I can't connect at all.
Using command line wpa_supplicant I get absolutely no problem and I am associated within a second.
Let me know if anything is needed.

Hello, today I tried at company. There is WPA-PSK network 'AnriGuest', it is visible in list of networks. When I try to connect, it was doing nothing (well showing the two gray dots and some animation around them) for at least five minutes, then I plugged in eth cable and selected (had to) 'Wired' network from nm-applet.
Attached relevant part of daemon.log, please let me know if there is anything I should help with as this is rendereing NM useless at least for the moment.
Btw, I noticed yesterday there was wpa_supplicant running with controlling interface at /var/run/ wpa_supplicant- global, but I couldn't connect to it with:
sudo wpa_cli -p /var/run/ wpa_supplicant- global
is this supposed to work? Today ps ax|grep wpa showed nothing. Wierd.
I did purge and reinstall latest version of network-manager and network- manager- gnome.
