** Summary changed:

- NetworkManager crash when booting with wifi card activated, works well if 
activating it later
+ If an interface is already configured (dhcp) when NetworkManager starts and 
it try to configure it, it segfaults

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: network-manager
  
  Hi,
  
- i am using nm 0.6.4-6ubuntu2 on kubuntu feisty.
+ I am using NM 0.6.4-6ubuntu2 on kubuntu feisty.
  
- It looks like nm have problem with hardware kill switch on ipw3945.
+ I spotted what is my problem :
  
- There is 2 case :
- 1) if i start my laptop with kill switch off (so wifi is on) :
- nm just crash by itself like you can see at 12:27:43 of the syslog i joined 
and knetworkmanager tell me that nm is not running.
+ When my laptop starts, it has 2 interfaces available : one wired and one
+ wireless.
  
- 2) a) if i start my laptop with kill switch on (so wifi is off) : (in the 
syslog i just restarted dbus service, who restarted nm)
-         nm works,
-     b) i switch kill switch to off (so wifi is on) :
-         nm can detects my wifi card and knetworkmanager show me the wifi 
networks available.
-     c) i switch it on (wifi off) :
-         nm doest detect that wifi card is down (ifconfig still shows it to me 
and iwconfig too).
+ If i let in my /etc/network/interfaces for each one :
  
- Do you need more information ?
+ auto ethX
+ iface ethX inet dhcp
+ 
+ /etc/init.d/networking configure them and after NM is started by dbus.
+ 
+ And when dbus starts NM, NM segfaults when configuring the wired one
+ (see syslog)
+ 
+ I tried 3 things :
+ 
+ 1) ifdown each interface and restart dbus : NM didnt segfault
+ 2) ifdown only the wired one and restart dbus : NM didnt segfault
+ 3) let them up and restart dbus : NM segfaulted
+ 
+ Please tell me if you need more information
