[Bug 130715] Re: dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release?

[Bug 130715] Re: dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless
Using Hardy I have no problems at the moment. If I can remember correctly the latest updates of Gutsy solved the problem too as I can't remember the last time when I had to go through these kill/start sequences. -- dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Actually I haven't ever gotten knetwork manager or the one in gnome to ever do anything useful with a wireless card. In this case it doesn't see to see the networks which I see by simply running iwlist scan. -- dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 130715] Re: dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless
using /etc/network/interface , the devices will be brought up on boot up. /etc/init.d/network restart might be an easier workaround to your issue. Removing everything from /etc/network/interfaces will allow you to use networkmanager to configure and use your network. Better option for roaming user. -- dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi! If you don't need dhclient, why don't you remove it ? -- dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 130715] Re: dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless
Perhaps I wasn't clear. I need dhclient to get a leased an IP address, however there is some program trying to run it all by itself.

[Bug 130715] Re: dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless
Okay I found the problem and the solution but it is still a bug. my /etc/network/interfaces was trying to bring up the device before it was ready and thus creating a bogus empty pid file. By commenting essentially everything out of the file I got normal behavior back. (In this case I mean normal except that the netowork managers seem useless.) That being said this is still clearly a bug. -- dhclient already running, must kill to connect with wireless https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/130715 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
