Hi there.

I updated to 8.04 on 1st May and since then have been having problems getting wireless working. I have the same problem as described by juksu in this post. I can see all the available wireless networks but when i try to connect the network manager hangs on "waiting for network key". This has me stumped. I tried applying the debdiff to the source for network-manager but apparently it has already been applied. I guess this is what was meant when someone said it was already in the repositories.

Anyway, if anyone has any ideas that would be great, i know i haven't provided much information here, i was not sure whether it would be worth much as juksu has exactly the same problem. However, if i can provide any information that would help then i am more than willing to provide it.

The only thing i haven''t tried is rolling back to an earlier version of network manager, I am ashamed to say that this is because I don't know how to. According to synaptic there is only one version of network manager. If anyone could help with this that would be great.

Cheers
