Doesn't there need to be driver support as well?
In the
dmesg output posted by notaz I see WEP, CCMP and TKIP, but no AES, for instance.
CODE

Can someone confirm the (non)existence of wep2/aes support?
ieee80211 is the kernel's networking stack, not the driver for your wireless chip. if it doesn't list AES, that means that there isn't support for it through the kernel. the specific driver for the wireless chip interfaces with a program called wpa_supplicant (used for connecting to encrypted/protected networks) through a general wrapper driver. as long as the driver for the wireless chip has support for the kernel's networking stack, we should have no problem getting WPA2 security working.
EDIT: In response to above, yes, there is a very basic gui for wpa_supplicant, and it should support PEAP just fine.
