2008.8 (with updates) and wpa_supplicant == hang (is only me?)

Wed Aug 20 17:03:22 CEST 2008

It seems that now I finally switched from qtopia to 2008.8 -- ie. it is
ready for me as a daily-used phone! YEAY!
but yesterday I've ran into a problem after I've tried to setup my
wireless the way I did long ago on 2007.2: copied my wpa_supplicant.conf
and tuned up interfaces with
iface eth0 inet dhcp
 wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
but then whenever I do "ifup eth0" (via ssh usb session) phone freezes
(screen remains powered -- no reaction to any touches or keys, even holding
power button for 10 sec does nothing).
before I try to do anything I wondered if anyone uses wpa_supplicant
succesfully (what kernel and wpa_supp versions?) or could confirm the same
issue as I have?
thanks in advance
