[PATCH] network-manager-applet: autogen.sh broken
Hi, "autogen.sh" (for network-manager-applet) is still checking for "src/applet-dbus.c" to verify if the current directory is top level. Using the attached patch "applet.c" is used for checking as "applet-dbus.c" was removed a while ago. Please commit to trunk. Thanks, Helmut Index: autogen.sh === --- autogen.sh (Revision 143) +++ autogen.sh (Arbeitskopie) @@ -7,7 +7,7 @@ PKG_NAME=nm-applet (test -f $srcdir/configure.ac \ - && test -f $srcdir/src/applet-dbus.c) || { + && test -f $srcdir/src/applet.c) || { echo -n "**Error**: Directory "\`$srcdir\'" does not look like the" echo " top-level $PKG_NAME directory" exit 1 ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Network Manager doesn't work an b9rks keyboard
Hi, all. I have got a serious problem eith Networkmanager: Whenever I Try to connect to my wireless network, it just b0rks the keyboard. That means that any attempts to press any key (even ctrl+alt+backspace) are ignored. The Mouse still works as expected. If I then try to reboot the computer, It hangs on rebooting. In this situation, magic sysreq works, but a "ctrl+alt+printscreen+b" doesn't restart the computer, but works as expected. If I do this manually: # ifconfig wlan0 up # wpa_supplicant -B -iwlan0 -Dwext -c/etc/.../wpa_supplicant.conf # dhcpc wlan0 then my wireless comes up, without problems. The network is Wpa encrypted. (WPA2-PSK) Here is some system information: kernel 2.6.23-rc4 wireless driver: bcm43xx (eth1 changed to wlan0 per udev rule!) gnome DE with compiz-fusion 0.5.2 an beryl 0.5.2 x86_64 architecture The distro is Gentoo unstable Sincerly, Thomas ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

If you create multiple connections for an interface that does not have a good means to autodetect what connection to use (ie, ethernet, serial modem, etc), you will need to explicitly choose which connection you'd like. You can mark one connection as "autoconnect = False", NM won't try it by default. So I think you can have one Connection as default when you plug in the cable, and others available as you need them. Whether or not in the future there's some sort of autodetection by arping or otherwise of a known MAC address is something people have proposed, but needs a lot more discussion (sysadmins hate it).

Static IP settings in 0.7 -- per "connection" or "interface"?
Good day all, The NetworkManagerFAQ[1] indicates that "Better support of static IP addresses is planned and in-progress for NetworkManager 0.7.", as does various emails on the mailing list archives (though it is not totally clear from NetworkManagerToDo[2]). I guess it will then be possible for the user to set stuff like IP address, Subnet mask and Gateway (is that right?) Question: Will such settings be configured per *"connection"*, so that I could, for example, use one static IP for one wireless access point, another static IP for another wireless access point, and dynamic IP for others? Or will the settings be configured per *"interface"* (such as eth0, eth1...)? (I would much prefer the former..) How about wired access points? Will NetworkManager be able to differentiate between different wired "connections" (or "access points"), and store different settings for them? As a sidenote I would like to say that I find NetworkManager to be totally excellent.

So if you can reproduce the issue without NetworkManager in the mix, that helps narrow down the problem. This definitely seems like a driver problem to me. If you provide the wpa_supplicant config files to the madwifi driver people, likely they will be able to help you debug why their WEXT support isn't working here. The atheros situation will hopefully get a lot better in a few kernel versions because the ar5k mac80211-based driver will be upstream. And it'll have the same WEXT problems that iwlwifi and bcm43xx and all the others do. Which means it'll likely work quite a lot better than madwifi.

Re: wpa_supplicant options
It's working great everywhere, except at my university. They just implemented a WPA2 secured network, using TTLS/PAP, and NetworkManager appears to hang after completing "Stage 2 of 5". I say "appears" because it functions normally, the list of wireless networks updates, and after a few minutes it asks me for the authentication information again and then times out. If I disable NetworkManager and bring up wpa_supplicant and the interface manually with -Dwext then I get the same thing. If I use -Dmadwifi, then it all works almost immediately. I added a quick check to NetworkManager for the existence of a file, and if it exists to pass 'madwifi' to wpa_cli instead of 'wext', and after recompiling, installing, and creating that file, NetworkManager authenticates to this network almost immediately. It's a horrible hack job, if I'd wanted to spend more than 5 minutes I should have added a command-line option or read a config file...

Why do you need to use -Dmadwifi? For a long time now, the madwifi drivers have provided sufficient support for wireless extensions that the default (-Dwext) ought to be fine.
