Posted: Fri Aug 31, 2007 11:21 am Post subject: K Network Manager problem [SOLVED] |
|
|
K network manager detects networks both wireless and wired. However when you attempt to connect to them it spends a long time trying to get ip configuration and then settles on its own address. My router is setup as a dhcp server and all other computers connect to it without problem.
Thanks

There was a problem with dhcp 3.1.0 and NetworkManager. I believe you need 3.0.6 for NetworkManager to work correctly with KNetworkmanager.
dhcp 3.1.0 just recently went stable, so you will have to manually mask it to test/verify if this is the case. _________________ If God were a pickle, I'd still say "no pickle on my burger".

Merging dhcp-3.0.3-r9 solved it.

For what it's worth I had to move my /etc/wpa_supplicant directory so that
it wouldn't read the existing WPA stuff.
I could see my wireless networks, but couldn't connect as it would keep prompting
me for the key. Upon moving /etc/wpa_supplicant (anywhere but /etc)
it connected first time.
Yay
I'm a huge fan of NetworkManager as I'm getting very lazy these days...
Gentoo for teh win

Please try the newly committed dhcdbd-3.0 in combination with the stable dhcp-3.1.0 and report whether it works.
