Title:
  Network Manager can't connect to hidden wireless networks

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  After the 13th of September updates I can't connect anymore to my university wireless network using network manager. I can connect without any problem ti unprotected or WEP protected networks.
  The university network is WPA2 EAP-TLS protected. I can however connect manually using wpa_supplicant with the following wpa_supplicant.conf file:

  network={
        ssid="unimib"
        scan_ssid=1
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        pairwise=CCMP TKIP
        group=CCMP TKIP
        eap=TLS
        identity="xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
        ca_cert="ca.pem"
        client_cert="xxxxxxxxxxxx.pem"
        private_key="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.key"
        private_key_passwd="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
  }

  I can also connect using wicd.

  This is the result of running NetworkManager --no-daemon:
