Configure WLAN without applet?

2008-04-18 Thread Tassilo Horn
Hi all, I've recently switched from traditional network setup (with wpa_supplicant) to NetworkManager, and it seems to work pretty well. Unfortunately, to set up encryption one's supposed to use one of these three NM frontends: - Gnome NM applet - knetworkmanager -

Connection problems with wpa_supplicant already running

2008-04-18 Thread Daniel Qarras
Hi, this is a weird failure scenario with current SVN trunk but I am able to reproduce it every time so I'm wondering is this a local hickup or what. I'm using Fedora 8 + latest updates + NM SVN trunk. The problem is: When starting up NetworkManager, wireless connection can't be established. I

NM not detecting device when kernel module unloaded

2008-04-18 Thread Daniel Qarras
Hi, it seems that when starting NM while the kernel module for a network device has been unloaded, the device is not initialized/detected by NM, otherwise it works all ok. Ie, rmmod ipw2200 ./NetworkManager fails to detect my wireless interface but modprobe ipw2200 ./NetworkManager sees the

Hi! When starting up NetworkManager, wireless connection can't be established. I found out that I need to stop NM, stop running wpa_supplicant (started during boot while networking was being started) and then start NM and all works well. What is weird that if I restart NM then

Hi! otherwise it works all ok. Ie, rmmod ipw2200 ./NetworkManager fails to detect my wireless interface but modprobe ipw2200 ./NetworkManager sees the wireless device. Is this a bug or a feature? What version of NM? Current SVN trunk. Seems like a bug. Can you grab the syslog

Wireless Chips

I just finished reading the Network manager story in the Red Hat Magazine. It had a list of chips that work with Linux and a list that don't. Are these chips the kind that are in the computer or are they PCMCIA type. I have a Dell Inspiron B130, that has a broadcom wireless card. Haven't

[PATCH] [1/3] Use libnl instead of iproute/AF_PACKET (nm_system_device_add_route_via_device_with_iface)

Removes the AF_INET implementation of nm_system_device_set_ip4_route, reimplement it with libnl. The fifth argument is now the prefixlen, and no longer the netmask (it was always called with 255.255.255.255) diff -r a8b0359dcc78 src/NetworkManagerSystem.c --- a/src/NetworkManagerSystem.c

While converting stuff to libnl, I've noticed that nm_system_flush_arp_cache() is currently unused. Should it be removed ? regards, Benoit -- :wq ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org
