eth0 + wlan0

2010-03-12 Thread giopas
Hi crew,

I've just subscribed to this list and I would like at first to thank all
developers for their precious work! :)

Moreover I have a small problem and I wish if somebody can help me.

Objectives:

> Use eth0 to connect to a specified NFS folder using a fix IP (connection to
> be established every time the cable is plugged)
> AND
> Use wlan0, in DHCP mode, to surf on Internet
>


Requisites:

> Use only NetworkManager (if possible) to handle both connections.
>



Problem:

> Every interface individually works, however if plug the cable (eth0), I
> cannot surf on Internet any more (it try to "surf" using the cable).



Can you help me please?

Here below some technical details.

Thank you very much,

giopas

How NM decides that /system/ connection applies to device? I always see 
two auto connections for wlan interface - "Auto Wireless" and "Auto 
$CURRENT_SSID" even though there are system connections with 
$CURRENT_SSID defined.

Wired interface OTOH correctly picks up system connection and does not 
offer "Auto" one.

Thank you!

Re: Modem Manager gets into a funny state with CDMA modems

2010-03-12 Thread Jason Glasgow
Dan,

Novatel U760.  The modem appears to be fine (not sure what you mean drop off
the bus.  If I reopen the device all is fine).  I hacked up my version of
the code (mm-generic-cdma.c) to always call mm_serial_port_open() before
using the file descriptor, and it works great.  But I don't think this is a
good solution.

How can an application be made aware of the machines "online/offline"

Reply to self and archive: It is called State in NM lingo and can be

Yup, you found it...  Out of curiosity, how easy was it to find out the
answer?
   


7! ;-)

In the beginning I wasn't sure how NMs "having a network connection" 
concept was, how explicit it was and how useful it was. I didn't know 
what to google for - and you know how most google hits for NM looks like ...


"state" could mean so many things. I think I thought it was referring to 
the daemon itself, not to how successful it had been managing the 
network. "The overall state of the NetworkManager daemon" is IMHO not 
exact. Something like "The overall (connectivity) state of the 
NetworkManager connections" would have helped me more.


The documentation in spec-08.html looks nice, but the deep nesting and 
lots of whitespace makes it easy to get lost. (Minor comment: It would 
help a bit if method names GetDevices were marked up as code.)


Try to search through the page for "state" - there are lots of hits, but 
they are referring to different kind of states, and it isn't obvious 
what the context is.


Once I know what to look for and code against there were no problem. 
Especially with the help of d-feet. (D-bus hint: Accept that you _do_ 
have to repeat yourself all the time ...)
