My old networkmanager(0.8) works fine, but the new kde-misc/networkmanagement requires at least networkmanager 0.9. But my nm applet cannot detect the new networkmanger. I checked the system bus with d-feet, the Introspection Data section of org.freedesktop.NetworkManager is empty. :-( Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unmask networkmanager 2. emerge networkmanager 3. /etc/init.d/Networkmanager start Actual Results: kde nm applet cannot detect networkmanager, nor does nm-tool. Expected Results: kde nm applet and nm-tool should work. output of nm-tool: NetworkManager Tool State: connected (global) ** (process:23686): WARNING **: error: cannot retrieve connection: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) ** (process:23686): WARNING **: nm_client_get_devices: error getting devices: Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1 ** (process:23686): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting 'ActiveConnections' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: (25) Launch helper exited with unknown return code 1 excerpt form output of Networkmanager --log-level=DEBUG --no-daemon: * status: started NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.338659] [nm-netlink-monitor.c:117] link_msg_handler(): netlink link message: iface idx 3 flags 0x1003 NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.338922] [nm-netlink-monitor.c:117] link_msg_handler(): netlink link message: iface idx 2 flags 0x1003 NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.339599] [nm-netlink-monitor.c:117] link_msg_handler(): netlink link message: iface idx 1 flags 0x10049 NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.339772] [nm-netlink-monitor.c:117] link_msg_handler(): netlink link message: iface idx 2 flags 0x1003 NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.339864] [nm-netlink-monitor.c:117] link_msg_handler(): netlink link message: iface idx 3 flags 0x1003 NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.341036] [nm-agent-manager.c:339] impl_agent_manager_register(): (:1.5/org.kde.networkmanagement/1000) requesting permissions NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.352322] [nm-agent-manager.c:269] agent_register_permissions_done(): (:1.5/org.kde.networkmanagement/1000) agent registered NetworkManager[16221]: <debug> [1324784656.385622] [nm-supplicant-interface.c:451] interface_add_done(): (wlan0): interface added to supplicant NetworkManager[16221]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant interface state: starting -> ready NetworkManager[16221]: <info> (wlan0): device state change: unavailable -> disconnected (reason 'supplicant-available') [20 30 42] NetworkManager[16221]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant interface state: ready -> inactive NetworkManager[16221]: <warn> disconnected by the system bus.
