UTAS on ASUS eeepc

The _Original_ ASUS eeepc (the one with Linux) doesn't support the UTAS wireless network by default. The network drivers need to be updated, which thankfully has been documented here:

The process requires a few downloads, so it's easier to setup at home first, and then connect later to the UTAS wireless. The wpa_supplicant.conf settings are the same as an earlier post Wireless at Sandy Bay for GNU Linux. If you're truly lazy, you can ignore the CA certificate file (ie. remove the ca_cert line), but it's not particularly a good idea. I'm still not sure how to get the certificate file without using a Windows machine (Update: Try this to get certificates - not sure if it's the right certificate yet).
