Strike that.. its not workign again... It seems that network manager runs this command /sbin/wpa_supplicant -g /var/run/wpa_supplicant-global and when i try it.. it just freezes... lame! This isn't a bugzilla problem. *** Bug 256816 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Would you mind trying networkmanger 0.7? Currently it's hard masked for testing, but should work much better than version 0.6.6 Rob WIth networkmanager 0.7 wireless networks arent even listed anymore.. The only reason networks aren't listed is when wpa_supplicant isn't running. What happens when you run "wpa_supplicant -u". Also, did you restart dbus after installing networkmanager-0.7? NM-0.7 starts wpa_supplicant automatically over dbus, but dbus needs to know about it. You need fairly new wpa_supplicant and dbus-1.2.0+, but both should be installed as deps for NM anyway. Rob Is this still a problem with current versions of wpa_supplicant and dbus? Please reopen if the bug still exists, thanks. fwiw, it (0.7.2 & 0.7.999) works for me with wpa_supplicant-0.6.9 && dbus-1.2.3-r1 |
