Package: network-manager-kde Version: 1:0.2.2-1 Severity: minor Hi, KNetworkManager displays my notebook's ipw2200 interface as "Device: Unknown (0x8086) Unknown (0x4220) (eth1)" Since the ipw2200 is not exactly an exotic hardware, I am kind of astonished that it is not displayed "by name".
Found the problem. It is a hal, resp. pciutils issue: pciutils (1:3.0.0-2) unstable; urgency=low * libpci-dev is priority standard * Compile the udeb lspci with libpci.a * Don't uncompress pci.ids.gz * update-pciids works as expected. Closes: #411314, #452008 * pci.ids: updated with daily snapshot dated 2008-04-27 01:05:01-- Anibal Monsalve Salazar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fri, 25 Apr 2008 09:50:37 +1000
hal, though, expects the pci.ids unzipped.Reassigning to pciutils. It shouldn't just ship gzipped ids and break dependent packages.
Interestingly, I also have a dangling symlink now: /var/lib/misc/pci.ids -> /usr/share/misc/pci.ids Marc, as a workaround, you can run gunzip /usr/share/misc/pci.ids.gz and restart hal.
