Public bug reported:

With kernel 3.4.0-5 network-manager WPA wireless, network-manager menus
very difficult to activate, drop down selection shaded out for a long
long time, after many many selection clicks.  Then it finally after a
delay will connect.

Next tme I boot, and network-manger disconnects.  Doesn't connect to the
WPA even though everything is all set up.

Then after several tries to even get the full network manager menu to
display "connect to hidden wireless network", the "connect to hidden
wireless network" menu is then mostly greyed out.  Does not respond to
mouse or arrow keys.  Many attmpts to get selection or tab to work,
finally does, then does not connect.

Repeat "connect to hjidden wireless network" again and again finally
after a long delay connects.  Whew.  On every boot.

I have a notebook upgraded to quantal except the kernel is 3.2.0-24.
Sometimes connects to WPA network right away, but at least network
manager menu selects first time, selecting "connect to hidden wireless"
works right away, the selections and mouse clicks actually work, and it
connects right away.

Any way to get "connect to hidden network" to be remembered on next boot
with 3.4.0-5?

Any way to get "connect to hidden network" menu choices to come up
activated the first time and then when the only network is selected, to
actually connect?  Wireless Security tab click on it many many times
with delay may or may not come up.

Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000, Acer Aspire 1 netbook
Quantal running as expected for Alpha 1 otherwise.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Of course, ubuntu-bug can't report if network isn't up, so I did this
ubuntu-bug after it -finally- got running.
