Networkmanager: need to dialup *twice* to get 3G internet connection
Last modified: 2009-10-19 22:25:51 UTC
Using FACTORY, since about one week, I need to try connecting my 3G connection twice. The first try will log the following in /var/log/NetworkManager: <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) starting connection 'vodafone' <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): device state change: 3 -> 4 <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled... <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) started... <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): device state change: 4 -> 6 <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) complete. real_connection_secrets_updated: assertion `caller == SECRETS_CALLER_GSM' failed the applet (at least knetworkmanager, not sure about nm-applet) is still in state "connecting". I then click "disconnect": <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): device state change: 6 -> 3 <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): deactivating device (reason: 39). nm_system_device_flush_ip4_routes_with_iface: assertion `iface_idx >= 0' failed nm_system_device_flush_ip4_addresses_with_iface: assertion `iface_idx >= 0' failed and "connect" again: <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) starting connection 'vodafone' <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): device state change: 3 -> 4 <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled... <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) started... <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) complete. <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) scheduled... <info> Activation (/dev/ttyUSB2) Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) starting... <info> (/dev/ttyUSB2): device state change: 4 -> 5 <info> Starting pppd connection ... and it works (almost, nm-applet then segfaults, but that's a different bug). This behaviour is the same both with nm-applet and knetworkmanager.
Duping to later bug which appears to have necessary comparative dbus dumps. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 534230 ***
