iwlist command to ask the device
wlan0 to
scanning
The pipe command "|" lets use two or more commands such that output of one command serves as input to an output.
grep is the second command it is a great basic search program.
tell it to look for ESSID And Frequency.
and out puts it for you.
We get Richard out put oh his toshiba laptop.
Sorry for the delay (and thanks for the assists @Drakeo and @Richard Cranium), I've been busy prepping the house for a dinner party all day and it left me with little time to be on the computer. They should be here in like 20 minutes, so I have a bit of time to cool down and clear my head
@WBP, based on one of your previous posts, you mentioned you have multiple entries in your /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf. Let's remove it so you only have one. Maybe it isn't liking the password and just wants the hexadecimal psk.
I would change it so it just has these lines on the top and nothing else.
Then I would rerun that wpa_passphrase script with your ssid and passphrase.
Code:
wpa_supplicant your_ssid your_passphrase
If this continues to time out, it seems like it is probably a driver problem and we could look into getting a different driver for your device. Unfortunately, I probably won't be available for a good chunk of the night, but I'll be on here tomorrow (and possibly late tonight depending on how late the party goes and how tired I am afterwards) if the others are away.
I recognize that output is far too much crap to re-type on another machine; do you have a USB stick available? You should be able to mount one of those on the Linux machine, redirect output to it, unmount, and then mount on the windows box.
The command
Code:
wpa_supplicant -d -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf | tee /tmp/wpa_trace.txt
should allow you to see the output on the console as well as save it to a file (/tmp/wpa_trace.txt in this case).

@bassmadrigal, no worries at all. I appreciate all the help that I'm getting.
I changed /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf back to how it was originally then ran:

The equivalent of the line I've put in bold in my debug output in your debug output is I honestly believe that you somehow left off the -Dwext bit.
I'm very sorry. I rechecked it again and while I did have "Dwext" I forgot to add the "-". I ran the command again, and now it's currently outputting info.
I recognize that output is far too much crap to re-type on another machine; do you have a USB stick available? You should be able to mount one of those on the Linux machine, redirect output to it, unmount, and then mount on the windows box.
The command
Code:
wpa_supplicant -d -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf | tee /tmp/wpa_trace.txt
should allow you to see the output on the console as well as save it to a file (/tmp/wpa_trace.txt in this case).
I do have one kicking around here somewhere. I just moved so I'll have to look through a few boxes. Also, I never mounted a usb thumb drive before, so it might be a little bit before I reply. I will get you both pieces of info you requested. Thanks for your patience.
if you move this particular computer you installed slackware 32bits on next to the router and use a cat5 cable to connect the computer ethernet plug to the router, does networkmanager successfully acquire an ip address ?
although you say

Also, there isn't a problem with my network. I have two other devices connected and they're working fine.
your network may not have any issue but maybe it is not serving extra ip addresses ?
you are already through so much hassle w/ that usbdongle, it is worth resorting to physical actions.
You shouldn't have to wait more than a minute or two for the wpa_supplicant command to do what it has to do.
Another option is to download the wpa_supplicant upgraded package for Slackware 14.2, upgrade the version you have, and run the wpa_supplicant commands again. (I assume you found a USB stick.)
Thank you for your replies, and your continued support. I have to head out for Christmas dinner, so I will be away from my computer(it's a desktop). Hopefully, I can get back to this tonight, if not I will tomorrow morning. Merry Christmas
