But I'm not talking about NM... since upgrading to Gutsy, my laptop connects to random open networks before NM is even involved in the process: - before I log in (my KNetworkManager settings are in my KWallet, so it used to be that wireless networking was a post-login thing) - immediately after rmmod ipw3945 && modprobe ipw3945, while KNetworkManager still shows "No Wireless Networks Found" Thus, if NM isn't doing the connecting, the driver must be. This messes things up, so NM can't do its job anymore. Using 'sudo iwconfig', I see things like: - ESSID: "default" even though NM is trying to connect to "home" - my home encryption key being used with my neighbour's network So, I seem to have a pretty serious disconnect between NM and the ipw driver, with the driver doing all sorts of things (e.g. connecting to networks) that NM is supposed to be in charge of. This is the behaviour of which I ask, "does anybody else see this as well, or should I file a new bug?" -- [Gutsy]Network Manager Applet can't connect wireless with ipw3945 driver https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121439 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
