Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
Hi! This is Ubuntu Feisty, up-to-date. I have a Dell Latitude D620
laptop; I connect to a wireless network through the inbuild
ipw3945-managed card. It's auto-configured by the network-manager thing,
with DHCP.
Today I had a weird problem. It happened once more earlier this week,
but I didn't think of keeping the logs that time. Before that I never
used to have issues with the wireless, so it must be some recent change.
What happens: suddenly I notice the nm-applet shows I have no connection
(ie all four "signal bars" are empty). I tried to disable the network
from the applets menu (it worked), but when re-enabling I got no
wireless option. iwconfig reported no wireless extensions for eth1 (my
wireless interface).
/var/logs/user.log contained only a single relevant line:
Apr 5 11:44:04 cimer dhcdbd: dhclient 12498 down (9) but si_code == 0 and
releasing==0 !
but syslog has a but more, I'll attach it next.
