Can you get any logs out of NetworkManager by stopping the service, and (as root) running "/usr/bin/NetworkManager --no-daemon", trying to connect, and posting the output to this list? Dan > Do you mean as root typing: > > /usr//bin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ? Yes. The NetworkManager daemon itself needs to be run as root, but only the NetworkManager applet needs to be run as your user. So, if you open a terminal, and get a root shell (either with 'sudo su -' or 'su -'), you can just type "/usr/bin/NetworkManager --no-daemon" and you should be fine. This will cause NetworkManager not to daemonize, and to direct all its output to the terminal in which it is run. > If so then how to I try to connect.

You should be able to just run both /usr/libexec/NetworkManagerNotification and /usr/bin/NetworkManagerInfo as your normal user, if they are not already running. > And where is or what will the log file be called? It should be printed out to the terminal in which you ran /usr/bin/NetworkManager. You can then simply copy the output and put it into an email. Make sure you try at least one or two connection attempts, of course, so I can see the output of that. Dan Here are two logs. In the first one there was no wireless network nearby and for the second one there was. It seemed to have stalled out on the second one. I was at a Panera Bread which allows you to connect wirelessly, but, to fully connect your have to go through a screen on the web.I ran the command in the terminal and it never came back to the prompt. __ Log with no Wireless Network Nearby [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# /usr/bin/NetworkManager --no-daemon NetworkManager: <information> starting...
