Description Forgotten User ZhJd0F0L3x 2006-01-18 10:50:48 UTC 
recent packages:
NetworkManager-gnome-0.5.1cvs20060117-2
NetworkManager-0.5.1cvs20060117-2

Setup: 2 interfaces, "cable" (tg3) and "air" (ipw2200).
Associated with unencrypted wireless network "gost-seife", pack in the laptop and leave the building.
When arriving at the Office, network manager is no longer there.

everything network related from /var/log/messages

this is everything network related from messages, since NM start yesterday evening. Including my ppp dialin which i started from kinternet since ifup is broken for modems since last sysconfig update; This is probably too much information, the important stuff will probably be at the end.

Ah, good bug!

This should be fixed in 0.5.1cvs20060118 (just submitted).
