Status in NetworkManager: Fix Released

Status in Source Package "knetworkmanager" in Baltix GNU/Linux: Invalid

Bug description:
Since I installed dapper clean from CD, NM won't connect to my own hidden network., however it did before. The network was even in the list after a few seconds, the new feature of reverse mac scanning in 0.6.2.

Now even if I use "connect to other network" and I enter everything in there, the connection won't be a success. Not hiding the SSID solves the problem immediately, just as manually connecting to the AP with iwconfig eth1 essid <mine> ...
