Probably I'm being dumb, but I find it too much hassle to configure for
Linux - my network config tool (knetworkmanager *) always asks for more
WPA/802.1x parameter options than are ever published. I could probably
be less lazy and figure them out or ask around, but a sample config or
template file would sure help.

Not that I don't use SSH. Seems to work just great for Android.
