Wi-Fi connection WPA2

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Connection to WiFi with WPA2 doesn't work. It is because of a bug in 
wpa_supplicant.
1. Setup your access pont to use WPA2 encryption.
2. Try to connect to it using Android-x86 (I used nightly builds).
3. You will see that WiFi connection is not established

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I tried it in build 20110101, and also on nightly build 20110105

Bug is fixed in wpa_supplicant GIT and in andriod GIT.

I tried this patch myself on android-x86 froyo, and it fixes the problem.

Hmm, interesing.
I just noticed actually we didn't use wpa_supplicant_6 at all.
To use it, you have to set
WPA_SUPPLICANT_VERSION := VER_0_6_X
So how could you find it?

The patch is already in upstream.
I think we could pend this issue until 2.3.

WPA2 is working for several people in the current version, so it'll be held off 
until 2.3 where the patch will be automatically be included due to  it already 
being upstream.
