I yum erased wpa* this not only removed wpa_supplicant and wpa_supplicant_gui, but also NetworkManager and its gnome interface. I then yum install NetworkManager* This added wpa_supplicant back in. rebooted. I can connect to the AP with no security, but not the one with PSK Passphrase (which needs wpa_supplicant). And the man pages only lists ipw2200, not ipw3945. So I am suspecting that there is no wpa support for my card?????
