In jaunty I can confirm this quite old and very annoying bug, which no
solutions have been so far provided for.
The symptoms are always the same: I have defined in knetworkmanager two wired
connections for my laptop, one with autoamtic (dhcp) ip configurations that I
use at home, the second with manual ip configuration I use at work.
Well, when I boot my laptop at work, and I try to convince knetworkmanager to
choose the work connection, nothing happens and I can see these error messages
in syslog:
Jan 30 10:14:39 eagle NetworkManager:
wait_for_connection_expired(): Connection (2)
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings/Connection/1 failed to activate
(timeout): (0) Connection was not provided by any settings service
Even if try to delete the connection, and to create again it, when I
click on 'Save&Connect' I get an error message:
Jan 30 10:18:50 eagle NetworkManager: connection_get_settings_cb():
connection_get_settings_cb: Invalid connection: 'NMSettingIP4Config' /
'addresses' invalid: 1
Jan 30 10:18:55 eagle NetworkManager: wait_for_connection_expired():
Connection (2) /org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings/Connection/5 failed to
activate (timeout): (0) Connection was not provided by any settings service
So I am forced to quit knetworkmanager, to launch nm-applet, and to use
it to choose the work connection, and nm-applet works without any
problem.
