Bug Description

I 'm testing feisty herd 4.
The new network manager applet 0.6.4 can 'see' the wireless networks but the signal bar next to the name of the wireless network is all gray. When I want to connect to a wireless network, it refuses to do. Wired connection works fine.

If I turn off roaming and manually setup my wireless network. I doesn't work either.

In the network setup screen I see 2 wireless connections 'wmaster0' and 'wlan0'. But I only have 1 wireless card

My wireless card 'ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow]'
linuxdriver 'prism54pci'
