 Your key is wrong here; you're attempting to use a WEP ASCII key, and
 those *must* be either 5 or 13 characters long.  Yours is 8 and thus is
 not a valid WEP ASCII key.

BCM4312/b43 acts weird with NetworkManager and F13

2010-08-06 Thread Ville-Pekka Vainio
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.

The staging drivers for the 8192 know nothing about the rfkill subsystem, thus

Modem gone after suspend/resume

2010-08-06 Thread Torsten Spindler
Hello,

a 3G modem is no longer recognized by modem-manager when the system
resumes. It seems the USB identification changes upon resume, from
usb6/6-1 to usb6/6-2. This might be caused by udev rules?

I've collected some logs here on Launchpad:
dmesg after resume:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/53157289/dmesg
find in the sys directory after resume:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/53157295/find
debug output for modemmanager:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/53157338/mm.log

Any chance to get modem-manager/networkmanager to rescan the device tree
to find the modem again?

Nope, it did not change. Device usb6/6-2 existed also before
suspend:

[2.444051] usb 6-2: new full speed USB device using
uhci_hcd and address 3
[2.636033] usb 6-2: configuration #1 chosen
from 1 choice

There is not enough information to know what it is, but
I guess it is (built-in?) smart card reader, based on

[ 4251.276912]
usb 6-2: usbfs: process 1360 (pcscd) did not claim interface 0 before
use

Compare lsusb -v output before and after resume.

As for your
modem - it seems to have dropped off after resume:

[ 4251.624038] usb
6-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 4
[
4251.744422] usb 6-1: device descriptor read/64, error -71

address 7, error -71
[ 4253.688104] hub 6-0:1.0: unable to enumerate
USB device on port 1

I would start with checking that device alone
(without any application) can survive suspend/resume cycle. Stop NM/MM
to make sure nothing attempts to attach to device; plug in modem;
verify that it is available using lsusb; now suspend/resume and check
whether modem is still available. If not - this is kernel problem and
NM cannot do anything about it.


 I've collected some logs here on
Launchpad:
 dmesg after resume:

http://launchpadlibrarian.net/53157289/dmesg
 find in the sys
directory after resume:

 debug output for

NEWS entries / Announcement mails

2010-08-06 Thread Dominique Leuenberger
Hi everybody,
 
I know you're all busy coding and enhancing NM, which is a good thing per se. 
Yet I would like to ask if anybody could once in a while spend some
time extending the NEWS file or create a Announcement mail when a new version 
gets out?
 
I have, for a start, a rather hard time defining why an update from 0.8.0 to 
0.8.1 should be a good thing to do (other than upstream released a new
version). For our packaging policy it is mandatory to outline the most 
important changes between package versions.
 
I would appreciate if this could be considered (and maybe cought up for the 
0.8.1 release of the various modules, NM, NM-{openvpn,pptp,vpnc} and the
gnome applet).
 
Thank you very much for your help! 
 
Dominique

What I mean is that the 8192 driver fails in various ways even when not 
rfkilled -- but that's an entirely different issue.

Is there something similar to this for

? As those certainly did get some love to on the road to 0.8.1, but it's at

Is Network Manager in 11.3 different from 11.2?

2010-08-06 Thread Robert Smits
For many years I've used scpm to reconfigure my laptop by changing the nfs
fstab file depending on what environment I was in. This year I understand
scpm is no longer available in 11.3, and I've been told to use network
manager. In 11.2, network manager, despite it's name couldn't manage
networks, just connections. Has network manager changed so I can easily
alter my nfs setup as I move my laptop from connection to connection?
