Hi,
A few minutes ago I had a crash in my notebook while it was asleep
("suspend to ram").
After that, NM didn't came back, all managed network devices were deactivated.
KDE-NM-applet were saying only "Network management is disabled". And,
no matter how long I clicked over it, there were no clue on how to
change that, I just couldn't re-enable it.
After some digging, I found
"/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state" this way:
--------------------------------------------
[main]
NetworkingEnabled=false
WirelessEnabled=true
--------------------------------------------
I edited the file, changing to "NetworkingEnabled=true", and restarted
NM, and it magically started working again.
Shouldn't KDE NM applet show me a way to re-enable NM? Is this an
error in NM, or in KDE-NM-applet?
I reproduced the problem right now on a Kubuntu 9.10 i386 virtual box:
- NM package version 0.8~a~git.20091209t012851.cbe313b-0ubuntu1~nmt~karmic
- plasma-widget-networkmanagement version 0.9~svn1029786+ag1-0ubuntu1
- kernel 2.6.31-15-generic
