Public bug reported:
I am not sure if this should be bug or a wishlist. BUT aircraft-manager
crashes miserably when I add the package to a Jaunty Ubuntu-Netbook-
Remix. I wanted that aircraft manager installed to turn off and on my
bluetooth support mostly.
I did dig into the code of aircraft manager and discovered two
incompatibilities with the UNR live image for Jaunty. First the kernel
is missing a module called hci_usb which may explain why bluetooth
notification icon does not appear. I know this cause I ran the command
that this app ran directly in a terminal.
Second the d-bus messages for network manager appear to have changed
which does explain why it crashes in the first place. I know this cause
it spews "dbus.exceptions.DBus Exceptions:
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod: Method "getWirelessEnabled"
with signature "" on interface ("null") doesn't exist. This method is
called with getWifiState() on line 300 of aircraft-manager.
As I said I am unsure how this should be handled :/ but I think that
aircraft-manager should be usuable in Jaunty even if the entire mini9
package set stays with Hardy. It seems only common sense to keep those
brave mini9 users happy.
