[SOLVED]wpa_supplicant kernel error

Hi,

I noticed this error when I ran journalctl to check for boot error.  I am using Network Manager and I have normal wifi connection.   I have been googling for a fix but haven't came up with anything.  Appreciate help.

Thank you.  I saw this too.  However, I am using systems-boot so I am not sure what to do.

nb. that this is an ad-hoc device, if you don't need that, you can just ignore the error.
