Oddities with NM 0.7



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

I've been having trouble with NetworkManager 0.7 on my rawhide laptop (T60 with
iwl3945 wireless part running latest iwlwifi drivers), ever since it came out. The
main symptom I'm seeing is the following in syslog:

Oct 13 02:30:57 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Trying to start the supplicant...
Oct 13 02:32:03 localhost NetworkManager:last message repeated 11 times

No wireless. If I downgrade to the f7 set of packages (NetworkManager*,
wireless-tools, dhcdbd, wpa_supplicant, libdhcp4client, and dhclient), NetworkManager
works fine.

I've also seen the latest rawhide packages cause problems with wired connections
(e1000 driver). The wired connection will come up, then NM will take it down and try
to start a wireless session.

I've had this laptop on rawhide for quite some time, so it's entirely possible that
there's some stale config information out there causing one of the components
problems. Any suggestions on how to track down what's going wrong?

Thanks,
Clark
