I have my wireless mostly working on my laptop, but I have two issues left.
First off, my wpa_supplicant tries to start before my ipw3945d daemon. I searched, but I can't seem to figure out a way to get it to start afterwards.
Mikkel's reply hopefully helped you to get the startup order right. Alternatively, you may be able to not use the wpa_supplicant service directly if you use NetworkManager. I have an ipw3945 in my laptop and use NM to connect to my wireless network using WPA2. I don't have the wpa_supplicant service enabled.
Second, I searched and found several posts on getting gnome to try my login password to unlock my keyring, and I tried without success on adding a line to my pam. My password to my keyring is the same as the password when I login, so I'm not sure what is causing it to not use my password.
I'm running FC6 and have pam_keyring-0.0.8-3.fc6 installed. My /etc/pam.d/gdm file looks like this:
#%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_env.so auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass auth optional pam_ssh.so try_first_pass auth include system-auth account required pam_nologin.so account include system-auth password include system-auth session optional pam_keyinit.so force revoke session include system-auth session required pam_loginuid.so session optional pam_console.so session optional pam_keyring.so session optional pam_ssh.so
The two relevant lines I added are:
auth optional pam_keyring.so try_first_pass
and
session optional pam_keyring.so
I don't recall if there was anything else I needed to install or tweak to get this working, I don't think there was. Hopefully someone will smack me with the clue stick if I'm forgetting anything important.
Check the list archives for pam_keyring and you will hopefully find a few other discussions on getting this to work. I've had it working since FC5 and it's quite handy.
Good luck!
