Cannot Start wpa_supplicant in Fedora Core 6

[Timo Hirt]

Try to execute /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant start in your shell.

But first you have to modify /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf and
mayby /etc/sysconfig/wpasupplicant

I didn't get the Fedora packages of wpa_supplicant and the madwifi driver to work and compiled them on my own. Now it works fine.
