Feb 19 10:49:42 ThinkTank NetworkManager[1408]: <info> WiFi now disabled by radio killswitch

Feb 19 10:49:50 ThinkTank NetworkManager[1408]: <info> WiFi now enabled by radio killswitch Feb 19 10:50:06 ThinkTank NetworkManager[1408]: <info> (wlan0): bringing up device. <<<<<<< after manual activation of wireless in the front end

Would it be possible to post output of the command "rfkill list all" on all stages ? This shall reveal what is blocking the wlan. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The label says " NetworkManager doesn't enable WLAN after using the WLAN kill switch" . In what state is the rfkill "after using the WLAN kill switch" ? What specific action does "NetworkManager doesn't enable WLAN" mean ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

If I disable and then enable WLAN with the kill switch, NM still has WLAN disabled afterwards like seen on the screen shot.

Could you post the output of the "rfkill list all" at this point ?

As soon as I click on "Enable Wireless" the connection is reestablished.

And post the output of the "rfkill list all" again here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

The only thing that seems to have an influence on rfkill is the hardware switch. The NM software switch, at least the one used by KDE, doesn't change it.

Yes, only the hardware switch shall hard un/block the rfkill. The status of rfkill reported in C#6 are ok. The problem here is that after the rfkill re-enables the wlan adapter NM doesn't try and reconnect automatically. Correct ? But, this is matter of NetworkManager (NM) or KDE in this case.

If I toggle manually the value, then the led of the wireless is switched on but the "Enable wireless" option remains grayed and I am still not able to use the wireless. If I restart the network service, then the "Enable wireless" option becomes activable. It seems that the bug is already fixed upstream (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267967). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After logging out and back in again, using the GNOME nm-applet, everything behaves as normal but the remainder of my desktop is KDE. I'd love to know if a fix is forthcoming for openSUSE 11.4 so I can switch back. The only workaround that works for me (while still using the KDE network manager interface), is to uncheck "networking enabled" and then re-check it (caution: not too fast or it appears to go into a loop!) and *then* wireless stuff can be turned back on. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
