Title:
NetworkManager does not configure Wi-Fi adapter; dhclient can -- Intel
PRO/Wireless 4965 AGN
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I have ubuntu linux 9.10 for x86-64 platform and my kernel version is :
2.6.31-15-generic.
The version of Network-manager is 0.8 a git.20091013t193206.679d548-0ubuntu
downloaded from ubuntu official repository.
My problem has appeared since the last update.
The problem is that the wireless adapter (Intel PRO / Wireless 4965 AGN) is
not activated by network-manager during the startup and even through the manual
execution of network-manager.
Gnome applet under "Wireless Networks" is given: "wireless network disabled".
If I start network-manager with the command NetworkManager - no-daemon
I get the following output:
f...:~$ sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon
NetworkManager: <info> starting...
NetworkManager: <info> modem-manager is now available

NetworkManager: <WARN> nm_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire

NetworkManager: <WARN> main(): Failed to start the dbus service.
NetworkManager: <info> exiting (error)
If I configure the wireless network via the commands:
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid...
sudo dhclient
the network is functioning properly even if NM continues to indicate
inactive.
If I uninstall nm
sudo apt-get purge Network-manager
and then reinstalled with
sudo apt-get install network-manager
nm for the next reboot it works correctly. It comes back again to the
second reboot after installation.
File /etc/network/interfaces conents:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
The Ethernet interface is handled correctly.
By menu on NM-applet on Gnome can not choose "enable wireless network"
