NetworkManager is just a tool to control your network connections. It assumes that you already have a network/wireless driver installed correctly, which is either compiled in the kernel or is a kernel module. So if you are having a trouble with the kernel driver for your network card, you need to get that fixed before you can use NetworkManager.
Now NetworkManager may have a problem *using* your specific driver correctly... in my case, it is simply issuing the wrong command (AP_SCAN 1) to wpa_supplicant, when in fact it should be AP_SCAN 2 for ndiswrapper. But this is not (I don't think) a problem with the ndiswrapper kernel module. And bug 39707 is a completely separate issue altogether. -- can't connect to hidden network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50214 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
