[Bug 132042] Re: wireless stops working until reboot
Upgrading to Quantal has resulted in (seemingly) corrected behavior. Wireless now connects noticeably faster and reconnects seamlessly after waking from sleep & hibernation. I'm going to keep my eye on this for a while longer, attempt to do stupid things to cause breakage, but for now the bug appears to be resolved. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132042 Title: wireless stops working until reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/132042/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 132042] Re: wireless stops working until reboot
After running NetworkManager in the foreground for a few more days I thought I'd go back to running it via the upstart service. Within a minute of `service network-manager start` I began getting prompted for new network credentials (same old busted behavior.) I kill'd wpa_supplicant to see if the behavior was similar to when I was running NetworkManager in the foreground, but it only made the situation better for 2 minutes at most per restart. Only after stopping the network- manager service and going back to running NetworkManager in the foreground did the situation improve. Based on the experience of the past week, my next steps will likely be to dig into the NetworkManager source to see if there's anything special going on when the process is daemonized especially wrt wpa_supplicant. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132042 Title: wireless stops working until reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/132042/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 132042] Re: wireless stops working until reboot
I've been running NetworkManager in the foreground (in a screen session) for a few days now without any downtime... until a few minutes ago. Upon waking from standby (from laptop lid being closed,) network reconnected but then went into the familiar "attempt reconnect -> prompt for creds -> repeat" loop after 2 minutes or so. I let it loop a few times, but then decided to kill wpa_supplicant based on the error message in the logs frequently mentioning "supplicant" :-P Once wpa_supplicant re-spawned the network immediately reconnected. Could this indicate there's an issue with a stale pipe or socket wrt wpa_supplicant? It's probably worth noting that the PID of wpa_supplicant when I TERM'd the process was 1033, which (I think) seems to indicate it was one of the earliest processes spawned since last boot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132042 Title: wireless stops working until reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/132042/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 132042] Re: wireless stops working until reboot
Since adding previous comment, I've installed rtl8192ce from source (from Realtek's "92ce_se_de_linux_mac80211_0004.0816.2011.tar.gz".) The wifi is now working beyond its previous lifetime. The only strange behavior I've seen so far is that I was presented with *3* dialog windows for re-entering wifi credentials even though I could see that the wifi icon wasn't "thinking" with the arcs pulsing in and out. I clicked `Connect` on all three windows (with cached credentials still entered) and everything still worked fine. I'd been presented with the credential input windows before reinstalling rtl8192ce, although it was never more than one at a time, the wifi icon was always "thinking", and I was never able to successfully reconnect (having to reboot instead.) I'm happy to dig into this further (with my very limited knowledge of kernel internals) if someone more knowledgeable can point the way. I've already tried turning up NetworkManager's logging both via NetworkManager.conf and by adding the necessary flags to /etc/init/network-manager.conf but it either didn't work or (more likely) I have no idea where to look for log output (would it be /dev/null'd when launched via upstart?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/132042 Title: wireless stops working until reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/132042/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
