      i found it:

      https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpasupplicant/+bug/578431

      now i know is a bug, but i have a problem, i need help for this mistake
      :(

      judging by the bug report it does appear that wpa-supplicant is configured incorrectly, most likely it is not loading the madwifi or atheros drivers correctly. Have you attempted to recompile wpa-supplicant yourself with other options to find a configuration that resolves your issue?

      If you decide to try to compile it yourself I recommend checking out the slackware build script for wpa_supplicant to understand what all must be done to make it work with various chipsets. Once you can get a stable configuration you can submit it to the bug report as a solution to hep the other users.

      ok, i will try compile the wpasupplicant, and then report my experience.

      now i am using:
      apt-show-versions | grep wpa
      wpasupplicant/lucid uptodate 0.6.9-3ubuntu3
