Hi, I'm running Fedora 13 with NetworkManager-0.8.1-1 and a 2.6.34 kernel from koji. My system has a BCM4312 wifi chip which I'm using with the b43 module and the proprietary firmware from Broadcom.
NetworkManager is acting a bit weird with wifi. Every time I reboot the laptop, the wireless connection is disabled, meaning I have to right click on the nm-applet icon and choose "Enable wireless". Based on /var/log/messages the firmware is loaded to the device at this point like this: NetworkManager[968]: <info> (wlan0): bringing up device. kernel: b43-phy0: Loading firmware version 478.104 (2008-07-01 00:50:23) kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready dbus-daemon: [system] Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_return", sender=":1.1" (uid=0 pid=968 comm="NetworkManager) interface="(unset)" member="(unset)" error name="(unset)" requested_reply=0 destination=":1.56" (uid=500 pid=1563 comm="nm-applet)) NetworkManager[968]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant interface state: starting -> ready NetworkManager[968]: <info> (wlan0): device state change: 2 -> 3 (reason 42) NetworkManager[968]: <info> Activation (wlan0) starting connection 'Auto <network name here>' etc. etc. With my previous laptop, which had an Intel wifi chip, the wireless network was always automatically enabled when I booted up the computer. I know the b43 drivers are still under development, but does anyone have an idea what could be going wrong? The dbus error does look a bit scary to me. -- Ville-Pekka Vainio _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
