One more try: - new clean released xenial 16.04 amd64 install on a spare partition - set update server to Main - update & upgrade - reboot - enable -proposed - update & upgrade - all relevant package versions precisely as in #32 (@Aron Xu: please note that not all libnm-* are 1.2.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2, namely libnm-gtk-common and libnm-gtk0:amd64 which are 16.04.1) -reboot
Result: still not working properly after wifi/AP/suspend off/on. The only improvement is that now I can make it work after a boot/login with a 'sudo systemctl restart NetworkManager.service' as I wrote in #33. I can upload a movie for non-believers :) -- 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/1574347 Title: [SRU]network-manager Status in NetworkManager: Fix Released Status in OEM Priority Project: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] NM needs to re-read the DEVTYPE after the device name changed, an example is that WiFi network list disappears from network manager applet Steps to reproduce: - 1. Connect to a WiFi AP. 2. Switch off the AP OR switch off the wifi in the computer. 3. Switch point (2) back on. 4. The network will get connected to the AP it was connected to in point (1). Problems:- 1. The network manager applet does not show the list of WiFI APs it can find. 2. The network manager applet does not the name of the AP to which it is connected 3. The icon of the applet shows two vertical arrows in opposite direction - the wired connection symbol and NOT the wifi connected icon. Temporary Workaround:- Log out and again log back in. [Testcase] After upgrading to the new version, the repeating the above steps should give expected behavior. [Regression Potential] Potential of causing regression is relatively small for a one line change to re-read a value to be known.
