Description Andreas Jaeger 2010-06-30 07:58:23 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.4) Gecko/20100611 SUSE/3.6.4-3.2 Firefox/3.6.4

After update to current factory with new NetworkManager, eth0 connects and then some NetworkManager disappears.

I first saw with nm-tool:
Device: eth0
State: connecting

and then:
Device: eth0
...
State: unknow
WARNING **: error: could not connect to NetworkManager

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install current factory
2. login
3. run nm-tool

This happens on two laptops

Running ifconfig I see that dhcp assigned a network address.  But this one is unusuable since no route is set.

Somehow the interaction between NetworkManager and network scripts is broken.

I consider this a SHOWSTOPPER for RC2

Comment 2 Stephan Kulow 2010-06-30 08:06:52 UTC

can you verify it's the NM? Please downgrade only that to RC1

Comment 3 Bin Li 2010-06-30 08:10:00 UTC

I'll try to reproduce it in my laptop first.

Comment 4 Bin Li 2010-06-30 08:21:59 UTC

Find it, the networkmanager-nis.patch, cause it, I make the mistake twice, :(, sorry about it, I'll update now.

Comment 5 Andreas Jaeger 2010-06-30 08:37:48 UTC
