Bug#1007776: authemtication of wireless network after password input fails



Hi Peter, and thanks for your report.

A couple of things: please avoid sending HTML messages in general. And
since you included a large picture (by mailing list configuration
standards), your report was not delivered to our list.

Peter Mueller <petermueller@ro.ru> (2022-03-16):

Over the course of the installation process, did you get any messages
regarding missing firmware? I'm not sure this would explain the issue
you're describing, but that's an easy item to check for…

The live test is quite useful, thanks for mentioning it. I'm wondering
whether this could be due to missing crypto modules inside our image,
which I've seen to be the reason for failure to associate from the
installer, while the installed system was fine. Any chance you could
start the live image again, save the output of `lsmod`, and attach it
here, using reply-all?


Cheers,
