Confirming in Intrepid + KDE 4.2 from PPA, knetworkmanager Version: 1:0.7svn864988-0ubuntu1.8.10.3.
When trying to set a fixed IP for an interface with KNetworkmanager, the connection will fail with a syslog message such as : « NetworkManager: <WARN> connection_get_settings_cb(): connection_get_settings_cb: Invalid connection: 'NMSettingIP4Config' / 'addresses' invalid: 1 NetworkManager: <WARN> wait_for_connection_expired(): Connection (2) /org/freedesktop/NetworkManagerSettings/Connection/7 failed to activate (timeout): (0) Connection was not provided by any settings service » Tracing this it seems to relate with the following line that KNetworkManager generates in knetworkmanagerrc for the fixed IP address : Value_addresses=<list>\n <list>\n <uint32>2164435136</uint32>\n <uint32>16777215</uint32>\n <uint32>4261587136</uint32>\n</list>\n</list>\n We can see here that the "list" tags open/close are doubled. If closing KNetworkmanager and editing knetworkmanagerrc by hand, then removing the doubled tags, and restarting KNetworkManager afterwards, the connection will establish again with no errors - but in DHCP, it will ignore the fixed address specification. IMHO looks like KNetworkManager just puts wrotten values in its XML config file and is unable to parse them properly afterwards, and sends bullshit to networkmanager. A bug with no doubt. -- knetworkmanager under kde4 doesn't recognize the static IP connections that I have configured. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280762 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
