I've heard that waproamd has been abandoned... and that we should switch
to wpa_supplicant to do automatic ap association.

I don't need wpa since i only associate with open aps... but i do want
to associate and leas an address automagically on resume from suspend.

i don't know where to run wpa_supplicant... 

i've tried putting it in the ifup.d area and issuing an ifdown ath0
during suspend and and ifup ath0 during resume but wpa_supplicant never
returns...

is it supposed to run like a daemon?

anybody have this working?
