Comment:

 Sometime over the last number of joyrides, WEP stopped working.

 Whether this is a problem with Sugar, or NM, or the kernel, or wpa-
 supplicant isn't known.

 We do note WPA works now.

 Might be some fix for Sugar did so, but we have other suspicions,
 see trac #5485:

 WEP works fine if set up manually, but not when wpa_supplicant does
 it.  In trac #5485 we are waiting for driver logs.

 Would be useful if someone would take a working build and update
 _just_ the kernel to check if it's a driver change which triggered
 this, and then use git-bisect to check precisely which change.

 We'll have to verify WEP again after finding/fixing the bug at the top of
 the UI stack, so I'm making sure we'll keep our eyes on it.
