[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
The problem with this was that nm-applet was exhausting the number of available IDs for the indicator -- when that happens, the indicator will stop working. This is related to the memory leak issue.

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
Oh yeah -- I ran nm-applet through Valgrind; I did not see any memory leaks due to this occurring. I'm likewise glad to generate logs, run experiments, etc. I know my way around code in general, though not Network Manager in particular. The issue I'm seeing is exclusively with sub-menus. (Is that true for others?) If this is the case, and if folks are unable to track it down, would it make sense to provide a way to display the top N VPN connections inline (as is done with WiFi connections)? This might not fix the bug, but it'd solve the 80% use case and would make the UI arguably more consistent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779754 Title: NM status icon sometimes not clickable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/779754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
Yeah, it's not limited to VPN. I use two adapters as well; each gets an entry in the main menu along with a few basic options, as well as (for WiFi) the first few nearby access points. The sub-menu is only needed if the access point I want isn't among the top few. (With Ethernet adapters, I don't have a sub- menu at all; everything is in the main menu.) So while that sub-menu is also usually broken / not available, I don't always need it. With VPN, everything to do with VPN is in the sub-menu. So if sub-menus are broken, I lose all functionality. Obviously, fixing the bug would be best. But this bug is over two years old; it sounds like either the package is not being actively maintained (in which case we're sunk) or the developer doesn't know how to approach this issue (which is fair -- it could be in an underlying library, some really obscure race condition, etc) in which case maybe a simpler patch that helps some of us a lot would be better than nothing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779754 Title: NM status icon sometimes not clickable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/779754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
I have two machines, one running Precise and the other running Quantal. I see this issue just as often in one as in the other. I have not had problems due to memory leaks / excessive memory usage on either machine. (There may have been leaks; I haven't watched closely; but the amount used by nm-applet et al has never been problematic for me.) I see several different symptoms associated with this Bug entry. I have only ever seen one specific problem: The VPN Connections menu is completely empty. It does seem to be associated with the system going to sleep and waking up again. Killing and restarting nm-applet always fixes the problem. Other sub-menus may also disappear (right now I'm seeing this issue and More Networks is also empty), but I don't use any other menus often enough to speak to it. This reproduces regularly for me. Not after every suspend/resume but after most. Let me know if further debugging would be useful. I'll try running in Valgrind; I don't think there's a memory leak but could believe some sort of memory stomp or other issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779754 Title: NM status icon sometimes not clickable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/779754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
Nah, sadly, it's not tied to any actual error messages. Instead, I'd recommend running nm-applet in valgrind (see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind for the command line on how to do this). I've fixed two additional, potentially pretty big leaks in Quantal, so it could explain why it's harder to see now (or no longer an issue?). It would be good if those who can reproduce this easily could test on a Quantal LiveCD if they can still see the issue, especially if it's something that takes less than a day to show up :) At the very least, I'll cherry-pick the patches applied to quantal and apply them to Precise, since it should be both trivial and a huge benefit to begin with.

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
I still see it regularly. I'm fairly certain that it is easy to reproduce. The steps I go through when I see it: 1. Connect to a VPN (cisco anyconnect for me). 2. Do work. 3. Suspend computer without remembering to disconnect from the VPN. 4. Wake up computer (usually after at least an hour). When I this happens, I lose access to the VPN portion of the menu, and I've also noticed that I can no longer connect to hidden wireless networks (though non-hidden, pre-configured networks are fine, probably because I don't have to go through the menu for them). If I do remember to disconnect from the VPN before suspending (or if I just didn't happen to need the VPN at that time), it comes back from suspend just fine every time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/779754 Title: NM status icon sometimes not clickable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/779754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 779754] Re: NM status icon sometimes not clickable
Me too on 11.04.
I have reinstalled network manager, but that didn't help.
Nearly every time I suspend, the wired connection does not go up.
Removing/initiating e1000e module (for the network adapter) does nothing, so
the problem has nothing to do with the HW.
Interesting note: my wireless adapter has an Auto profile, and that
connects without a problem.
Clicking on drop-down menu items ( including on Edit connections... )
does not work. (same symptom as the others).
Workaround I use is:
kill `ps aux | awk '/nm-applet/ {print $2}'`
nm-applet
(basically restarting nm-applet by killing it and then launching it into
background)

I think, that memory leak and functionality loss are two different bugs.

That bug describes it as it is possible to open the menu, but not working.
