I've installed wpa_supplicant 0.6.2 and still no love. How can I monitor
all messages which are sent by NM to dbus?

When the connection is established I can see it in /var/log/messages and
using dbus-monitor:

/var/log/messages:
Jan 11 13:46:56 [NetworkManager] <info>  Activation (eth0) successful,
device activated._
Jan 11 13:46:56 [NetworkManager] <info>  Activation (eth0) Stage 5 of 5
(IP Configure Commit) complete._


dbus-monitor:
method call sender=:1.18 -> dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications
path=/org/freedesktop/Notifications;
interface=org.freedesktop.Notifications; member=Notify
   string "NetworkManager"
   uint32 0
   string "nm-device-wired"
   string "Connection Established"
   string "You are now connected to the wired network."
   array [
   ]
   array [
      dict entry(
         string "y"
         variant             int32 12
      )
      dict entry(
         string "xdisplay"
         variant             string ":0.0"
      )
      dict entry(
         string "urgency"
         variant             byte 0
      )
      dict entry(
         string "x"
         variant             int32 1474
      )
   ]
   int32 -1
method return sender=:1.16 -> dest=:1.18 reply_serial=15
   uint32 23



but I  can't see anything in dbus monitor when NM tries to run
wpa_supplicant

/var/log/messages:
Jan 11 13:49:53 [NetworkManager] <info>  Trying to start the supplicant..._
                - Last output repeated twice -
 


I will also check the files you mentioned (although I'm not a programmer)


Thanks,

Rob
