Package: src:linux
Version: 3.2.46-1
Severity: normal

When booting my machine from a cold start each day, if I boot to 3.2, I get
endless requests from NetworkManager to enter the network password.  I have a
workaround that consistently works to resolve this issue:

1. I reboot the machine into 2.6.

2. Usually, NetworkManager automatically connects to the network, though
sometimes I need to disable/enable wireless before it will do this.

3. I reboot into 3.2, and it automatically connects, every time.

I believe this is an issue with either ath9k or other wireless modules used by
the kernel (mac80211?).  This issue first appeared when I upgraded from squeeze
to wheezy (and thus from 2.6 to 3.2).

My wireless card is an AR5416.  I'm attaching an annotated sampling of the
syslog that shows the log messages from the 3.2 failure to connect, the reboot,
and then the 2.6 successful connection.

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
