[Bug 479900] New: gnome live cd live install "no network running" during automatic configuration
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=479900 Summary: gnome live cd live install "no network running" during automatic configuration Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Live Medium AssignedTo: coolo@novell.com ReportedBy: casualprogrammer@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=275671) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=275671) yast2logs User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-2.5 Firefox/3.0.6 While performing a os11.2 live install from the gnome live cd a wireless network connection is established and functional. After first (automatic) reboot the automatic configuration continues and comes up with an error "no network running", then properly states that connection to repositories could not be made. After finishing installation and logging in, the connection is established again without any further action being required. As obviously the necessary information is preserved, it should be usable during configuration as well. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. -- 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.

Is there any way to make it start a configured wireless network connection immediatelly? -- 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.

So: I don't think so. -- 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.

User connections are provided by an applet and are available as long as the applet is running. So while no user has logged, nothing provides user connections. The other type, system, are shared by all users and are available always when NetworkManager is running. In order to configure (or see the secrets of) these, user needs super user privileges, enforced by PolicyKit. So yes, it is possible to have wireless connection available before any user logs in, NM just needs to be configured appropriately. This can be done either by using the connection editor UI (part of NetworkManager-gnome) or programmatically over DBus. -- 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.

Can you point to a how-to on how to configure NetworkManager, resp. PolicyKit so that user can create a system-wide network connection? If it is matter of just a single check box in NM applet, I think that this bug can be closed, otherwise we may consider changing the default configuration (of e.g. PolicyKit or whatever is needed, provided the security implications are acceptable). -- 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.

In order to save a connection which is available to all users, root password is needed. It is described in the SLE11 documentation somewhere, I wrote it when the documentation people asked information about NM. -- 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.
