One of my user said, before upgrading his Ubuntu 8.10, he was using Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04. The previous Ubuntu is running well. Once he upgrade it to Ubuntu 8.10, he cannot get connected to our secure wireless environment anymore.
Hmmmmm... while other user with other stardard OS e.g Windows XP, Mac OS and Windows Vista doesn't have any problem, so I suspect, the WPA configuration in Ubuntu 8.10 something need to change drastically. It seems like doesn't works well in a secured wireless environment.
We have tried and yes, it does not work with IIUM wireless campus. I tried to switch to fedora 10, but the result is still the same. Then we tried to migrate to knoppix, my best linux distro ever, but still not working and become more worst when knoppix cannot detect Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG device. We dont want to use ndiswrapper since it finally could corrupt my entire OS. FYI, Suse linux will work smoothly with IIUM wireless.
