Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-firmware-nonfree

Sagem XG703A USB WLAN-adapter cannot connect to wireless networks with
WEP encryption when using latest Ubuntu. I was able to connect when
using another machine and Ubuntu 10.04 image but with 10.04.1 I am
unable to connect even if the machine is only couple meters away from
wireless router.

Motherboard is MSI K7T Turbo with VIA KT133 or VIA KT133A chipset. The
WLAN adapter can see the network and password is asked but it cannot
connect. In order to get the card to be detected I had to install linux-
firmware-nonfree. Ndiswrapper does not work either, same thing happens.

** Affects: linux-firmware-nonfree (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
