A first line saying that I often restart NM by nm-applet & seems to have been removed from my expanded report, below heading.
Crashes seem to be accompanied with (nm-applet:6848): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 107 was not found when attempting to remove it as in http://askubuntu.com/questions/506824/nm-applet-does-not-work- ubuntu-14-04. I tried their advice to sudo apt-get install --reinstall network-manager which seemed to change something … not sure, maybe a new strange message appeared instead. I don't want to follow their GNOME-related ideas with Lubuntu, and I think nothing is wrong with the "fallback" message after nm-applet &. Maybe really notable: * occurrs with fragile mobile broadband connection * the installation is live persistent on USB pendrive, with modest upgradings. I have another similar installation heavily upgraded, it behaves similar regarding NetworkManager; I use too rarely to report about it. Another funny circumstance is that I have sudo rfkill block wifi in an autostart script, but after some breakdowns of connection/nm-applet/NM, LC_ALL=C nmcli nm status reports WIFI to be enabled, and the applet displays available WLAN points. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1406712 Title: NetworkManager crashes every few hours with Lubuntu 14.04.1, removing applet from lxpanel. Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Sometimes I don't find any way to get it back without restarting. (I don't like restarting because then I must re-open at least 5 LXTerminal tabs I use in every session.) Sometimes I even can't use WvDial anymore after certain NetworkManager crashes, "Invalid dial command", maybe related modem key management by NetworkManager and ...!? Yes, I usually connect to the web by UMTS; alternatively sometimes by LAN, rarely by WLAN. I like NetworkManager for its notifications and its icons in the panel. This has happened since I switched to Lubuntu 14.04.1. With Lubuntu 12.10 and Lubuntu 13.04, there only was the "enable mobile broadband" problem for which I had workarounds. Sometimes nm-applet even collapses when it connects successfully. lubuntu@lubuntu:~$ apt-cache policy network-manager network-manager: Installiert: 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 Installationskandidat: 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 Versionstabelle: *** 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status (more like this already have been gathered by apport) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: network-manager 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-32.57-generic 3.13.11.4 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-32-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: i386 CRDA: Error: [Errno 2] Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden: 'iw' CasperVersion: 1.340 CurrentDesktop: LXDE Date: Wed Dec 31 06:49:22 2014 IfupdownConfig: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback IpRoute: default via 10.64.64.64 dev ppp0 proto static 10.64.64.64 dev ppp0 proto kernel scope link src 10.222.214.5 LiveMediaBuild: Lubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release i386 (20140722.2) NetworkManager.state: [main] NetworkingEnabled=true WirelessEnabled=true WWANEnabled=true WimaxEnabled=true SourcePackage: network-manager UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) WifiSyslog: Dec 31 06:19:59 lubuntu kernel: [ 2054.511178] Media[9578]: segfault at 0 ip (null) sp a46a493c error 14 Dec 31 06:23:09 lubuntu kernel: [ 2244.435972] perf samples too long (2519 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000 nmcli-con: NAME UUID TYPE TIMESTAMP TIMESTAMP-REAL AUTOCONNECT READONLY DBUS-PATH Kabelnetzwerkverbindung 1 5b95bb40-4fe3-4710-986e-1d369bbcfb67 802-3-ethernet 1420002089 Mi 31 Dez 2014 06:01:29 CET yes no /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/2 E-Plus Vorgabe 3147833c-6fae-4422-b031-1fb5439dca8e gsm 1420004801 Mi 31 Dez 2014 06:46:41 CET yes no /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/1 pasing 8c214b46-0633-4a14-b287-470ea2f63e01 802-11-wireless 0 never yes no /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/0 nmcli-dev: DEVICE TYPE STATE DBUS-PATH ttyUSB2 gsm connected /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/2 wlan1 802-11-wireless disconnected /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/1 eth1 802-3-ethernet unavailable /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/0 nmcli-nm: RUNNING VERSION STATE NET-ENABLED WIFI-HARDWARE WIFI WWAN-HARDWARE WWAN running 0.9.8.8 connected enabled enabled enabled enabled enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1406712/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
