[Bug 671349] New: Cannot enable wireless with networkmanager
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671349 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=671349#c0 Summary: Cannot enable wireless with networkmanager Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.4 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: utgarda@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:2.0b10) Gecko/20110121 Firefox/4.0b10 Clicking the checkbox "enable wireless" in nm-applet does nothing, instantly it becomes unchecked again, the only effect is that I can see a "+ show more" button for a quick moment near the button "manage connections". Trying to enable wireless via nmcli is just about the same: no effect and no error messages, neither to terminal nor to /var/log/messages. Had this problem right after installing milestone 6, now updated to RC1, the problem stays. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login and wait till nm-applet is there 2. Click on the icon "network settings", then toggle the checkbox "enable wireless" 3. Try to use networkmanager's console tools Actual Results: Nothing Expected Results: wireless networking enabled or, if impossible, some error message shown

# iwlist wlan0 scan wlan0 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
Yep, KillSwitch is enabled (that's the switch on the laptop chassis, right? ) , just tried it once more with a 11.3 livecd - wireless works fine.
So how about do this after "ifconfig wlan0 up"? -- 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.
