--- Begin Message ---Package: wicd Version: 1.7.2.4-2 Severity: normal I find that wicd-curses works fine when used in one place (work, home), but in a real conference setting with mulitple APs it often dies with: DBus failure! This is most likely caused by the wicd daemon stopping while wicd-curses is running. Please restart the daemon, and then restart wicd-curses. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 88, in wrapper return func(*args, **kargs) File "/usr/share/wicd/curses/wicd-curses.py", line 727, in update_status if check_for_wired(wired.GetWiredIP(''),self.set_status): File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 145, in __call__ **keywords) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 651, in call_blocking message, timeout) dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken. This happens just from moving about between rooms, and thus APs. It may also happen from suspending/unsuspending the laptop - I've not checked carefully enough to be sure. So maybe half the time, after I've moved somewhere else after an hour or two, I find that the network is not up and wicd-curses is in this state. re-running it causes a re-connect or reports that the connection is already up. I generally leave wicd-curses running in a terminal for network monitoring purposes (I prefer it to the wicd-gtk interface). The wicd dameon always seems to be still running, contrary to the suggestion in the error message. It seems to me that wicd-curses should deal better with this state and continue running. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages wicd depends on: ii wicd-cli [wicd-client] 1.7.2.4-2 ii wicd-curses [wicd-client] 1.7.2.4-2 ii wicd-daemon 1.7.2.4-2 ii wicd-gtk [wicd-client] 1.7.2.4-2 wicd recommends no packages. wicd suggests no packages.
