So I got my libnl conflicts sorted out but I'm afraid I'm no farther down the road. I can barely remember why I started all this. USB 4G Modems :-( Even looking at some of the regular desktop distro can't handle them at all so why did I start this on a RaspberryPi of all things? So now after installing: libmbim-1.12.2 libndp-1.4 libnl-3-2-26 libqmi-1.12.6 ModemManager-1.4.8 NetworkManager-1.0.2 when I run NetworkManager I get told that it can't find a configuration file: No config file found or given; using /usr/etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
you can specify the location of the configuration with ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
That's a bit of a surprise as I'm overwriting a previous install of NetworkManager which has a config file in /etc/NetworkManager. So I pass that config file to NetworkManager. Either way makes no difference actually as the NM bombs out on an assert error: libnm:ERROR:../libnm-core/nm-setting.c:1830:constructed: assertion failed: (_priv_esi->info)
maybe you need this patch: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?h=lr/ancient-ubuntu&id=0fe72f0e6b5ff0aedfb14ce93f7d274950f0adde from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749510 http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/log/?h=lr/ancient-ubuntu
Don't know what to say. Well tired of it. Could try the Arch Linux distro for RPi. Just for a fresh hell. A lot of distros I've tried on the desktop simply can't eject the CDRom when it's plugged in. Back to the drawing board. Any ideas would be great. Maybe the assert is because of a config issue? Maybe even a simple config issue? Need a break John
