screenshot, showing with ifconfig that i am connected and that nm-applet does not tell me.
You connected via NM, right? So NM successfully connected you, but the UI did not change to reflect this, and thus you cannot disconnect? yes. Disconnecting was only possible by calling "ifdown modem0" as root. Maybe some dbus-send magic would do, but i do not know anything about it :-) Okay, I get it. If you dialed the modem via NetworkManager, then NM should easily understand this. I will look into it. Thanks. Alright. NM 0.5.2cvs20060106 is checked into CVS and it offers a "Hang Up" option for each connection, which should down the interface. Can you verify if this works for you? :) yes, i will try it after the weekend. If now only WPA for wireless would work, i'd go into "crazy QA guy trying to find every bug before beta1"-mode ;-)) now i cannot even dial in anymore, i just get Jan 12 22:38:04 strolchi NetworkManager: <information> Activating dialup device Eplus GPRS/UMTS via Modem (modemB) ... Jan 12 22:38:04 strolchi ifup: Cannot enable interface modemB. Jan 12 22:38:04 strolchi ifup-route: interface modemB is not up it also does not work with "ifup modemB" from commandline as root so it might not be a NM problem. Full log is at https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=63190 (bug #142955) "ifup modemB" should work, right? I agree, not NM problem .. ok, it is an ifup bug, will be filed separately. And i can hang up the connection now, too. |
I configured a ppp connection with Yast, stopped smpppd, restarted NM. After that i can dial in, am successfully connected, but nm-applet still shows "connect to EPlus UMTS via modem" ("EPlus UMTS" is the provider name). If i click on this, it also does not disconnect but stays connected. nm-applet also does not signal that the ppp line is connected, i still have the "ethernet unplugged" icon. I'll attach a screenshot.
