I bet $$ it's a network manager problem or we're at a stalemate. I think it's
NM because, every time a reconnection occurs I get a "Secrets for Access Point
- KDE Daemon" dialog box *but* I can't enter a password into this box.
Checking show password or not, nothing I type is entered and every time, I hit
enter, I'll get the prompt again, and again, and again. I don't see what the
driver has to do with this except maybe start the disconnect :(
