[SLUG] network-manager-0.7 where's the logs?

2009-03-09 Thread Grant Parnell

0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1.8.10.2 network management framework daemon

I'm missing something... I wanted to find out how to monitor what 
NetworkManager's doing on Ubuntu 8.10.


Reason is we've just got a new 3G USB stick for the Three network. Model 
is E180.


NetworkManager brilliantly detected the device and I went through the 
wizard to setup and select the provider... all good. It *looks* like we 
aren't getting a signal as we only get the green double flash of the LED.


After ringing Three and confirming that the device was activated at 
their end we didn't really get any further... the usual not a supported 
OS stuff.


About the only thing I haven't tried since the upgrade is running up 
minicom on /dev/ttyUSB0 again.


In the bad old days of dialup analogue modems you could always tail -f 
/var/log/messages and see all the modem chatter and easily spot the 
problem. Darnit.. I wanna see the conversation.

/var/log/daemon.log (you are probably having Red Hat / Debian brain issues!)

Get a refund, and buy the older E160, it works a treat.
