Package: network-manager Version: 0.6.6-3 Severity: critical Rationale: system lockup
[ This might not be a network-manager bug directly, but simply uninstalling it fixes the problem. ] On a whole range of newly-installed Lenny systems at work, we have a major problem that seems to be caused by network-manager. The system boots up and at starts gdm as normal. However, when gdm starts it simply hangs at the X stipple screen rather than switching to the default solid blue background. The mouse pointer responds, but keyboard input fails to do anything (no response to numlock, can't switch to a console). The box does not respond to pings either; we have no option but to power-cycle. If we purge network-manager and simply enable dhcp directly from /etc/network/interfaces then all works just fine. There doesn't seem to be anything useful in the logs that I can see... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com Welcome my son, welcome to the machine. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
