[opensuse] kde network plasmoid broken
12.1 I have to give the root password and the wpa password every time I turn on my laptop. click on the plasmoid -> manage connections Choose connection and hit edit A popup appears BEHIND the window (so you have no idea it's there) asking for the root password. A popup appears 'No agents were available for this request' Click OK The Edit network connection window appears. Click on wireless security. The password has been deleted. Reenter the password and it finally connects. You have to do this evert time you boot. What a pain! There is no easy workaround I can find. I see that this was the same in Factory with 12.1 trials. I thought about wicd but it's not easy to install on 12.1. Anyone found a fix?

result vary depending your configuration. Network manager was always a pain, and the present version is a tentative to fix some bugs. I agree it's not that successfull, but do not too much shout on the testers, this version was included very late in hope of correcting some bugs - but probably inserted others. In my case, with the old version (two month ago, with factory) I could clic on a wlan line on the knetwork manager to activate it. Now I have a fine list of the networks... but no way to activate them. Problem is I do not use my laptop very often, So I discovered this only yesterday when representing openSUSE at the JM2L in Sophia Antipolis (France). The best way you can help is scanning bugzilla to find the network manager bug list (probably hudge) and add your notes there. I know people that are working on this, so I hope your note to be usefull thanks (I will also do as soon as I go back home) jdd -- http://www.dodin.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You've openend in this case two. http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2011-11/msg01527.html which is this one and http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2011-11/msg01529.html Don't do this.

Looks like reading mail headers is the next thing you should consider to learn. From them you would have seen that no server from the openSUSE project had caused this. Lars -- Lars Müller [ˈlaː(r)z ˈmʏlɐ] Samba Team SUSE Linux, Maxfeldstraße 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany

There is no easy workaround I can find. I see that this was the same in Factory with 12.1 trials. I thought about wicd but it's not easy to install on 12.1.
Anyone found a fix?
Try https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=716291 Will comment in #9 works for me. regards, -- medwinz http://medwinz.blogsome.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

regards,
Yep. Thanks. Unfortunately adding the lines you mention in the comment doesn't work. The lines should read: org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.network-control yes org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.settings.modify.own yes org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.wifi.share.protected yes org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.wifi.share.open yes org.freedesktop.ModemManager.Device.Control yes Then do: set_polkit_default_privs afterward If you don't want to get your hands dirty, there is a one click fix here: http://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=openSUSE:12.1:Update:Test&package=polkit-default-privs Ironically, you have to be root to use either method! I think this should be offered as a 12.1 update asap. HTH L x -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
