I hope, then, that Linux 2.6.25.x stable will be out sooner than 24th april (Hardy release date) otherwise I (and I guess also many other people) will be in a very bad spot until the kernel is updated...(I am not proficient enough so to compile a whole Linux kernel for my distro).
Thank you very much for your attention, in any case.

Using Ubuntu Hardy Beta, Linux kernel 2.6.24, AMD64.
I have to connect to a campus (University of Verona, Italy; more
information maybe available at https://wifi.univr.it sadly in Italian
only,
and I am not sure it is reachable from outside the university) WPA2
wireless network. It uses PEAP authentication, Dynamic WEP encryption,
second phase: MSCHAPv2.
It also requires user login, password, and a CA certificate (available at
the web page I linked above).
At the same page a wpasupplicant configuration file is also available, so
to allow people to connect from linux also.
In Ubuntu Gutsy 32 bit (Linux kernel 2.6.22.14 if I am not mistaken) I was
able to connect through NetworkManager and precisely using the GNOME
nm-applet.
However, since I switched to Linux 2.6.24, I have no more been able to
connect, whether through NM-applet or from the command line, using
wpasupplicant. The wireless functions perfectly, and there has been no
change in its configuration, since I am using it now (Windows Vista,
configured months ago).
Reported also here on launchpad:

Thank you for your attention.
