 So I'm having to manually edit /etc/resolv.conf just to update the DNS

 Any thoughts?

   
the applet bug should be fixed (as you noted). the ifupdown connections
_are_ read only. so thats a feature. Create a new connection or edit it
in /etc/network/interfaces directly (restart after that)

Alexander, can you recommend what files need to be checked / examined to
try and debug this problem specifically. Currently I have managed to get
the icon showing permanently, even though it tells me I'm disconnected
;-) I'm obviously not, as I'm typing this post on that box.

The version I have installed is as shown above, which appears to be
later than the proposed on launched pad

Mine: Installed: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1.8.10.1

Proposed: 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu1.8.10.1

I have installed the following in my sources to follow the latest
builds:

you have interfaces configured in /etc/network/interfaces ... applet

2008-12-04 Thread nick
ok Alexander, lets put it another way. The applet thinks the network is
down when it isn't, so how can I make it change it's mind and then try
and capture any output.  The /etc/network/interfaces look fine, and have
been configured using the nm-connection-editor util.

With the applet showing the network as down, all the functions are not
working apart from the edit connections, which just calls the nm-
connection-editor.

I not sure how I can feedback any info usless I know where to look for
error messages , and how to poke it to try and get some error messages.

Would you say the version I have installed is the latest?

After upgrading from 8.04.1 to 8.10 this is still a problem for me as
well. I have implement all the changes mention above, plus installed the
latest nm from launchpad

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
network-manager-gnome:
  Installed: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1
  Version table:

The machine is an HP DC7800 Quad core desktop machine. The applet shows
as running, but there no icon on the task bar. When I have been able to
get it too appear temporarily it shows the network as being down.

I'm using a static IP address, and it works perfectly ( thus this post),
and I can change network settings by manually running the nm-connection-
editor.

You don't need to run nm-applet as root...

I ran into this problem with a dist-upgrade performed today.

Simple way to get it back up and running is to kill any nm-applet
currently running, then starting it back up...

pkill nm-applet
nm-applet

that's all I had to do to get it back up.  Maybe the nm-applet crashed,
but didn't release the dbus resources?

[Bug 249404] Re: [[intrepid]] nm-applet can't start: permission issues

2008-07-18 Thread Connor Imes
Thank you, I did run into that thread yesterday actually.  If more
people can confirm that this is now working, I will change the status of
the bug to Fix Released (since I was not able to reproduce the bug
myself).  If you are certain that the fix is available, then you may
mark it as so at this time.

[Bug 249404] Re: [[intrepid]] nm-applet can't start: permission issues

2008-07-17 Thread Niels Egberts
jfernyhough has found a better fix here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager


Change the default policy context in both
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf and /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-
applet.conf so it says 'allow' instead of 'deny'.

policy context=default
allow own=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager/
allow send_destination=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager/
allow send_interface=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager/
/policy

Then restart dbus

sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart

and launch the applet

nm-applet
