[Bug 969343] Re: Unable to connect to WPA enterprise wireless

Tue May 8 08:10:50 UTC 2012

I will explain how I did it: revert to openssl and libssl1.0.0 version
1.0.0e-2ubuntu4

Open Terminal: type shell commands without the surrounding ""
"apt-cache showpkg openssl" will show which versions of openssl you have available on your system
If openssl is somewhere in the 'Provides:' list just do
"apt-get install openssl=1.0.0e-2ubuntu4" and "apt-get install libssl1.0.0=1.0.0e-2ubuntu4"

If you do not have the old versions in the apt-cache you can fetch them from 
http://mirror01.th.ifl.net/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/ (or another mirror, just an example)
You 'll need to get openssl_1.0.0e-2ubuntu4_i386.deb or the amd64 variant if your machine is 64 bit (you can check that with "uname -p" if it is 'x86_64' you need the amd64 variant)
And you 'll also need libssl1.0.0_1.0.0e-2ubuntu4_i386.deb or the amd64 variant, same rule here.

Get these two files to the affected computer with a flash drive, I got
them by booting the install disk and downloading them there, then copy
them to my harddisk. So you don't need two PCs but it is easier.

Go to the directory that contain the two deb files you need.
"cd /media" to go to the place where all these things are mounted
"ls" to see a list of flash drives... that are mounted
"cd nameofdrive" to go into that drive
You may need to cd your way through all the subfolders until "ls" gives you the name of the two deb files

Then you install these deb files with
"dpkg -iR ." this means install all debian packages from the folder '.'(and folder '.' is always the current folder you "cd"ed to)

Done, check "apt-cache showpkg openssl" to see the version is added

Now it is easiest to reboot, you could also kill all affected processes
and restart them, but it may take you longer than a simple reboot.

This is what I did if I recall correctly.
Another option is given by diane-trout above.

Bug description:
  Using identical settings as in 11.10, I am unable to make a wpa
  enterprise connection using xubuntu precise beta 2. This is a Lenovo
  X220 with a Centrino Advanced-N 6205 wireless interface. During the
  attempted logon, I am not presented with a certificate to approve,
  although wireless instructions for OSX suggest that I should be.
  However, I never had to approve a certificate when connecting with
  11.10 -- I just ignored the certificate screen and everything worked.

  This seems like the relevant excerpt from syslog:
