Comment (by Dilbert2):

 Ok, I did a new boot from CD, using hrev45205.

 In the deskbar I see several available networks.
 If I click on one that is WPA2 encrypted, I get a popup, saying:
 {{{Could not join wireless network:
 Application could not be found}}}

 So, I go to /boot/common/bin and then I double-click on wpa_supplicant.
 Nothing happens, except the CD starts spinning again.

 I then go to the deskbar again, and try to connect to a wpa2-encrypted
 network.
 This time I do '''not''' get that annoying error message!
 Instead, I get a box where I can type the encryption key for the network.
 So I type the encryption key.
 The deskbar gives a popup saying No link, then another popup saying
 Configuring.
 Then I get online and can surf the web! '''Great!'''

 So, I had to double click on wpa_supplicant, to make this work.
 Should it not start automatically?
