Hi all
Maybe someone can help me with my problem. I have installed
- wpa_supplicant with dbus support, as described in the book at:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/basicnet/wpa_supplicant.html
- NetworkManager with all the required and recommended deps except for
vala, as in:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/basicnet/networkmanager.html
- network-manager-applet with all the required and recommended deps, as in:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/gnome/network-manager-applet.html
nm-applet appears nicely on my xfce panel, but it has no option to turn
on wifi, only ethernet
My /etc/NetworkManager.conf looks like this:
[main]
plugins=keyfile
dns=dnsmasq
no-auto-default=*
# We really only want nm to manage the wireless stuff
unmanaged-devices=interface-name:eth*
unmanaged-devices=interface-name:tap*
unmanaged-devices=interface-name:lo
unmanaged-devices=interface-name:br*
Another strange thing is that network-manager still does manage eth*
Is anything missing from the book how to get network-manager and
wpa_supplicant working together, or am I missing another component not
mentioned as dependency?
Kind regards
Tim
