Alexander,

I can confirm that the 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1.8.10.1 update waits 60 seconds before giving a timeout error. Through my testing I have discovered two separate bugs, the first of which is mitigated by this package.

1. Some drivers take too long to associate with the 2.6.27 kernel (tested WG511T and Intel 4965AGN chipsets). This delay is NOT present in the 2.6.24 kernel from Hardy.

2.EAP-TLS does not work under any configuration (tested with 2.6.24, 2.6.27, NM 0.6 and 0.7, wpasupplicant from hardy and intrepid, and every combination of kernel, network-manager, and wpasupplicant). With the latest patch, the server shows a successful authentication each time I try to connect, but the connection always fails with a timeout message on the client side.

I reported these issues in Bug # 35836 but I think #1 should be reported as a kernel problem, and #2 separated.
