[opensuse] knetwork manager issues
Hi: I have a laptop hp nx 7300. If I leave the system running for more than a few hours the networkmanager program quits running and can't be restarted. I use it to manage the wireless networking on this system If I stop the network manager program and restart, I am returned a message that the network manager is not running. It does not appear to be possible to restart the network manager. In order to re establish a wireless network connection I am forced to restart the computer. Any way around this? I have the wireless card setup to be managed as a regular user with networkmanager. Gord -- Gordon J.

Hi Gordon, Are you using ndiswrapper to get your wireless card working? While I've never had NetworkManager quit on me, I do have the problem of NetworkManager not being able to 'configure device' (everything after that fails) if I don't login and let it connect immediately after the system is up.

Is this all you have to say? You contribute absolutely nothing to the thread except this. It's a total waste of time. Unless you have something worthwhile to add why not just delete the offending message and press on? Is it that hard? Oh, never mind.

.suolucidir gnitteg si siht woN hi Darryl,
You made me laugh.. thanks. :) And you reminded me of a question for you (or the list) that has me wondering about easter eggs.. the software kind. The other day while I was editing text in the kmail composer window I accidentally hit a key combination (which I have not been able to reproduce) and *all* of the text in the window redisplayed in a mirror image left to right [ and right justified ! ] and I was wondering if anyone else has seen that, and what that key combination might me... its not a huge concern, but it was kinda funny and it would be nice to know what I did. The way out of it was to save the text to draft (closing the composer) and then reopening the mail... everything was ok. -- Kind regards, M Harris <>< -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I doubt that's an easter egg. Most likely, you activated a keyboard sequence that triggered a right-to-left writing mode. That's something required to support some written languages.

It shouldn't crash. Post a bug report (bugzilla.novell.com) and include /var/log/NetworkManager - this should show the daemon's crash backtrace. 'rcnetwork restart' should restart the daemon, if not, please also indicate which part of the logfile is you trying to restart it.

Just out of curiosity, do you have the Intel 3945 Pro 802.11 card? If so, you might look into downloading the updated driver from Intel. http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/ Try that and see if it solves your problem. My guess would be that networkmanager is losing connection with the driver somehow. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
