Package: network-manager-gnome
Version: 0.6.4-6
Severity: normal
Sometimes (but not all times), gnome-network-mnager stop to see my
wifi interface. In particular, I do not see the menu entry 'Activer la
connexion sans fil' (in french) any more and, of course, I cannot select
any wifi network.
This often occures after a suspend-to-disk/resume cycle, but
1) not after each cycle
2) sometimes without any cycle.
In these cases, my wifi card still works : most of the times, I then
stop using network-manager-gnome applet and instead use
ifup/ifdown/ifconfig/route. I've no problem.
If I really want to use network-manager-gnome again, I can either
1) reboot :-(
2) type : "/etc/init.d/dbus restart"
In the latter cases, several applets stop or die. Gnome offer me to
restart them. And when network-manager-gnome restarts, I can see my
wifi settings/connexions again.
So, I would say that there is a bug somewhere. But I do not know
weather it is in network-manager-gnome, network-manager, dbus, hald,
avahi-daemon, ... (all restarted by "/etc/init.d/dbus restart").
I do not know how to test any of this separately. If you tell me
some commands to test when the problem occurs, I will add the
information to this bug report.
Best regards,
Vincent
PS : by chatting with other people, I know I'm not the only one facing
this bug.
PS2 : this bug in not recent. I cannot remember not having it (but I
regularly use network-manager-gnome only for a few months/1 year)
