Hi all, I've newly upgraded to FC4, and I'm trying to get the NetworkManager to work, but am having some difficulties... First, my setup: I have a Sony VAIO R505E laptop with built in ethernet, using the orinoco_cs driver. Networking works fine using the manual configurations (system-config-network). I'm testing this out at home, where I have a WEP-encrypted network which does not broadcast its SSID. Here are the issues I'm having with NetworkManager: 1. No menu item... I wasn't able to locate a GNOME menu item to launch the NetworkManagerNotification tasklet. Did I overlook it or is it not present? I had to run /usr/libexec/NetworkManagerNotification manually from a terminal. 2. Once scanning, NetworkManager does not detect my network, which makes sense since my network does not broadcast ESSID. So, I click on the task icon and select "Create New Wireless Network...". I get a dialog asking for the ESSID and WEP key. These I enter in and save them. After a few seconds, NetworkManager starts trying to connect to the network ("tarnation"). However it never gets further than trying. Running iwconfig at this time doesn't show the ESSID being set. Since I ran NetworkManagerNotification from a terminal, I can see its output, which says first "Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1' and network 'tarnation' with passphrase". Great. And the 'tarnation' network shows up in the popup window when clicking on the task icon. However, if I hit any mouse key on it, I see the following message in the terminal: "Forcing device '/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth1' and network 'tarnation' without passphrase", and this continues as many times as I select that item in the popup. Based on some comments at http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/nm.shtml I went into gconf-editor to see what the settings for tarnation were. Lo and behold, only an essid and timestamp were there, no wep key, etc. Trying to add these keys manually didn't help any. Has anyone gotten NetworkManager to work as expected? I'd love to be able to roam around to different networks without having to manually ifup and ifdown. -- Aaron Gaudio <prothonotar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
