Public bug reported: Hi. Sometimes network-manager crashes and I can't connect to any network. Restarting the network manager service via terminal hangs and even restarting the OS hangs and I have to force shutdown via power button.
When I open settings > Wi-Fi it says: "Oops, something has gone wrong. Please contact your software vendor. NetworkManager needs to be running". I'm not facing the problem right now as I just restarted my laptop so if there's any information that I need to gather while this problem is happening, let me know. Thanks.
