NetworkManager tries to start the supplicant via D-Bus service actiavation if it's not already running, so either there's an issue with D-Bus service activation, or you're running systemd and you have the supplicant masked, or you could just try making sure the supplicant is running when NM starts and ensure that it's launched with the -u option. Does that make things work?

Unavailable, managed device.
Hi, I currently trying to get NM to handle a virtual wlan device and can't get it to work. Its the second connection of an Intel 7260, the first one being used as an access point managed outside of NM. The OS is an Ubuntu Server 12.04 running NM 0.9.4.0-0ubuntu4.4.1 uname: 3.13.0-43-generic #72~precise1-Ubuntu SMP i686 i386 When I do everything manually through ip/iw/iwlist everything works fine but I now need to integrate it with the rest of our software that handles the network configuration using NM via DBus. I create the iface using the following command: iw dev wlan0 interface add wlan1 type station Here's what NM gives me: $ nmcli dev list iface wlan1 GENERAL.DEVICE: wlan1 GENERAL.TYPE: 802-11-wireless GENERAL.VENDOR: Intel Corporation GENERAL.PRODUCT:Wireless 7260 GENERAL.DRIVER: iwlwifi GENERAL.HWADDR: F8:16:54:55:A5:9C GENERAL.STATE: 20 (unavailable) GENERAL.REASON: 2 (Device is now managed) GENERAL.UDI: /sys/devices/pci:00/:00:1c.5/:02:00.0/net/wlan1 GENERAL.IP-IFACE: GENERAL.NM-MANAGED: yes GENERAL.FIRMWARE-MISSING: no GENERAL.CONNECTION: not connected CAPABILITIES.CARRIER-DETECT:no CAPABILITIES.SPEED: unknown WIFI-PROPERTIES.WEP:yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.WPA:yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.WPA2: yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.TKIP: yes WIFI-PROPERTIES.CCMP: yes Syslog: info (wlan1): using nl80211 for WiFi device control warn (wlan1): driver supports Access Point (AP) mode info (wlan1): new 802.11 WiFi device (driver: 'iwlwifi' ifindex: 28) info (wlan1): exported as /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/4 info (wlan1): now managed info (wlan1): device state change: unmanaged - unavailable (reason 'managed') [10 20 2] info (wlan1): bringing up device. info (wlan1): preparing device. info (wlan1): deactivating device (reason 'managed') [2] I have [ifupdown] managed=false in my NetworkManager.conf and wlan1 does not appear in `/etc/network/interfaces`. Nothing is disabled in `/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state`. Can someone point me the right direction to get out of this unavailable state? Thanks. -- Léo Peltier ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
