Hello,

I've put a fresh SL5.8 on an old laptop and find I can't connect to a 
university network with 802-1x authentication.  I've done this 
successfully in the past with other SL laptops, but now I get an error
from nm-applet "Unhandled setting secret type (write) 
'802-1x/phase2-private-key' : 'GArray_guchar_'"

Google turns up bug reports involving this error, but they all date from 
2009, when that bug was apparently fixed.  I don't see anything more 
recent.

The nm-applet I'm using comes from NetworkManager-gnome 1:0.7.0-13.el5, 
which I think makes it up to date for SL5.

Just for completeness, the 802-1x network uses tunnelled tls, PAP and a 
certificate from the bundle in /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt.  As I 
say, I've authenticated with it before, both with an older SL5 and with 
SL6.1.

Thanks for any advice.
