Re: [Bug 637930] Re: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart
This patch is specific to the packaging of NM. The fix itself is coming from upstream already. To use this, you would need to get the packaging code (apt-get source) and apply this patch on top and rebuild the package. To make things simpler you may wish to use the experimental packages from the network-manager team PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/637930 Title: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 637930] Re: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart
I've attached the syslog as requested, but bizarrely, the network-manager restart doesnt fix it now, like it did before. I cant remember but I might have run update-manager last night so that could have changed things. Nothing in synaptic's history though. (Does update-manager keep a different history file?) But the problem is different than I originally understood. It's actually just the Enable Wireless option on the right-click menu that's disabled. The wireless still works just fine. When I use dbus-send to turn it on and off by hand I can see wireless networks on the left-click menu of the network-manager icon when its on, and of course none when it's off, but the Enable Wireless option is still greyed out on the right-click menu: dbus-send --system --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.Set string:org.freedesktop.NetworkManager string:WirelessEnabled variant:boolean:false What more can I provide you with?

Paul, Please attach the contents of your file /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.policy.

[Bug 637930] Re: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart
I can reproduce this both on a full upgrade with NetworkManager in Networking disabled state, and by upgrading just NM and nm-applet to the maverick versions on a fresh Lucid install. Just editing the polkit policy file is enough for NM to wake up and enable the menu entry, so I suspect there is a trick that can be done to let policykit or NetworkManager know that there has been changes to policy files during the install, and that the issue comes from the order in which NM and policykit are being upgraded. -- Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/637930 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 637930] Re: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart
Looks like the bug is really in the applet (or the libnm parts called by it). Just touching /usr/share/polkit-1/actions/org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.policy after starting nm-applet is enough to enable the menu items. As soon as nm- applet is killed the file needs to be touched again for the authorization to pass. -- Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/637930 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 637930] Re: Maverick: Wireless is disabled until network-manager restart
Hi! In your bug report, there appears to be the result of start NM missing, up to when it gets restarted and detects your eth1 device. In order to add the information, could you: 1) reboot, let NM start 2) restart NetworkManager 3) attach the full contents of /var/log/syslog to this bug. Ideally we should then see the first NM startup logs, along with the logs from the second start, and how it detects the device.
