Hobbseehi Lure - knetworkmanager decided to stop working06:20
seaLnemorning Hobbsee 06:24
Hobbseehey seaLne 06:24
robotgeekHobbsee: for me too. it doesn't work on wireless. it also crashed my system twice :)06:24
Hobbseerobotgeek: ouch.  i had it working last night06:24
seaLnewired is so much less hassell :)06:25
robotgeekHobbsee: it works great while switching networks, i think it's a problem with my broadcom06:25
Hobbseeah ok06:25
LureHobbsee: really? tried removing knetwrokmanagerrc - it helped me once...06:25
=== LeeJunFan [n=junfan@adsl-69-210-207-5.dsl.klmzmi.ameritech.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel
HobbseeLure: yeah, tried that, no fix06:26
LureHobbsee: so what is happening?06:26
HobbseeLure: it says activation06:29
Lureand the window stayed?06:29
Hobbseeyes06:29
LureI had this once - I have removed kNM from wallet (was not enough) and removing knetworkapplet worked06:30
=== Hobbsee doenst even use kwallet
LureHobbsee: but where is then your password stored?06:30
HobbseeLure: i have no idea06:31
LureI have also seen on my system that selection of network to connect is strange06:31
Lureit does not select last one, but tries with random (or less secure?) in case that you hve tried to connect to multiple06:32
LureI have connected once to unsecure AP of my neighbour ;-), and now kNM does always this one first06:32
LureI had to remove kNMrc to get back to normal06:33
Hobbseehehe06:33
LureI need to discuss these issues with author - maybe fixes are already there in latest sources06:33
seaLnehas it maybe set a default wireless network?06:34
LureseaLne: problem was also that it could not switch back to my primary one anymore...06:35
LureHobbsee, seaLne: can you collect messages from NM and kNM and send with details to my e-mail?06:36
seaLnesorry i don't use wireless otherwise i'd try it06:37
robotgeekLure: i will also do so :)06:37
LureseaLne: OK, I though you had problems too and switched back to wired06:37
robotgeekLure: it crashed with zydas driver (froze my system)06:37
seaLnesorry for the confusion06:37
Lurerobotgeek: thanks - we need feedback06:38
Lurezydas - first time I heard of this...06:38
robotgeekLure: yes, i might be unique. i am on powerpc06:38
robotgeekLure: i will recompile their latest drivers, and see if it happens again06:38
Lureeven better!06:38

Hobbseecant find a network device06:43
LureHobbsee: again...06:44
Lureis it possible that something is taking your device over?06:44
Lurehave you checked NM messages? what they say?06:44
HobbseeLure: um, like wpasupplicant?06:44
Lureyes, or dhclient06:44
robotgeekLure: here is the output with broadcom http://kubuntu.pastebin.com/61376806:47
Lurerobotgeek: to which network are you connecting and which security06:49
robotgeekLure: to wireless "PMLAN" and wep hex key with open mode06:50
Lurerobotgeek: activation timeouts (20s)06:51
Lureis it normal for your AP that it takes longer to connect?06:51
robotgeekLure: i think it is a problem with the broadcom device06:52
Lurebut does it work w/o NM?06:52
robotgeekyes06:53
robotgeeki use a script to connect, plus wlassistant also works06:53
Lureit for sure is not kNM specific - it is either driver (missing support for wpasupplicant) or NM/wpasuplicant (less likely from current experience)06:53
robotgeekbut i dont use wpa06:54
Lurerobotgeek: then this is probably it (driver/wpas interaction), however I do not have much experience with WEP anyhow06:54
LureI think wpasupplicant takes over all security in NM (I need to verify this)06:54
robotgeekLure: thanks for your help, i will try with zydas tommorow and verify if it is problem with card/nm06:55
Lurerobotgeek: that would be great 06:56
robotgeekcool, i want knm working for my cards :)06:56
Lurerobotgeek: maybe wpasupplicant should not get involved with WEP, but it does in your case as the card may not report proper security mode back06:59
Lureis iwlist scan reporting appropriate info for your AP?06:59
robotgeeklemme check, it used to. 07:00
robotgeekexcept for signal quality, everything else seems to be fine07:02

Tonio_hello ;)07:04
LureTonio_: hi07:09
Tonio_Lure: hehe, good news for networkmanager :)07:09
Tonio_seems there are chances we get it in07:10
LureTonio_: yes, from whom?07:10
Tonio_http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/29807:11
Tonio_Lure: read this07:11
Lurenice - have not seen that ...07:12
Lurealso reports are improving., still a bit too-fuzzy for my opinion, but mostly driver issues/differences07:12
Tonio_Lure: the only *real* problem I've seen is Riddell's07:13
LureTonio_: _ion was asking in morning for you - he has some patches (including name change), he would like to get in07:13
Tonio_driver working but not with networkmanager07:13
Tonio_Lure: ah ?07:13
Tonio_great ;)07:13
LureTonio_: PPC is also still unknown (robotgeek will test)07:13
Tonio_ppc unknown you mean ?07:14
Tonio_you patch works, so what the point is ?07:14
Tonio_ho !!! ppc <> ppp ;)07:14
Tonio_hehe07:14
LureTonio_: I am not sure if NM and drivers on PPC are ready for NM07:14
Tonio_raphink as ppc but couldn't test, cause no wireless07:14
Tonio_Lure: well, to be honnest, actually, my preference for the default dapper tool would go to wlassistant07:15
Tonio_not knetworkmanager07:15
Lurereally?07:15
LureI need WPA ;-)07:15
Tonio_because wlassistant is based on command line actions, uses iwlist, iwconfig07:15
=== claydoh [n=clay@65.99.186.76] has joined #kubuntu-devel
Tonio_Lure: yes, but we may not have as much problems with wlassistant07:16
Tonio_my opinion is : have kubuntu with wlassistant installed by default07:16
Tonio_and have knetworkmanager available in main, but not installed07:16
LureI would first like to get latest sources of kNM07:16
Tonio_although knetwork brings lots of gnome dependancies, because of networkmanager itself....07:16
Luredo you see NM to be worse than wlassitant for WEP? 07:17
Tonio_that's the reason I think it is nicer to have wlassistant in dapper and investigate and work strong for knetworkmanager in dapper+107:17
Luremost of issues are WPA related (wpasupplicant requirements for drivers)07:17
Tonio_raphink, Riddell: core-dev's opinion ?07:17
raphinkon?07:17
LureI am fine if we get NM just in universe07:17
Tonio_Lure: I'm seeing wlassistant working as long as iwlist and iwconfig are working :)07:18
Tonio_knetworkmanager doesn't work that way07:18
Tonio_Lure: look at Riddell's problem...07:18
Tonio_Lure: that doesn't happen with wlassistant07:18
Tonio_Lure: NM cannot go in universe07:18
Tonio_it is already in main ;)07:18
Tonio_and latest version will go in main or die :)07:19
LureTonio_: most of the problems I have seen in forums/irc were releated to config issues 07:19
Tonio_Lure: yes, wireless drivers is a pain07:19
Lureand config stuff was caused by different manual hacks people did to make wifi at all work in the first place07:19
Tonio_Riddell's problem is the only real problem I've seen07:19
Lurelike ndiswrapper, fwcutter,,,07:19
Tonio_anyway, wlassistant, although not that advanced, allows to use dhcp, fixed IP address etc.....07:20
Tonio_the only missing thing is wpa07:20
Lureas I said, I am fine with getting wlassitant as default and kNM in universe07:20
Tonio_Lure: on my laptop, I hae to use fwcutter, but some strange reason it doesn't work07:20
LureI am just concerned if nm-applet will get in for Ubuntu, we will have to have kNM in Kubuntu!07:20
Tonio_so I had to switch to ndiswrapper, and write a script that each boot rmmods bcm43xx and modprobe ndiswrapper07:21
Tonio_standard users are not able to do this......07:21
Tonio_wireless is and will always be a pain with linux07:21
Tonio_because linux is not as good as because reagarding to drivers and generally hardware management07:22
Tonio_not as good as windows ;)07:22
=== incinerator [n=incinera@82-41-24-164.cable.ubr04.edin.blueyonder.co.uk] has joined #kubuntu-devel
LureTonio_: personally, I have switched to Linux because I hate hunting drivers around (but true out-of-the-box is slightly better)07:23
Luregetting drivers from vendors is pain - one-sto-shop of ubuntu is great. ;-)07:23
Tonio_Lure: maybe, but when you have a driver to manually install, windows is way better....07:28
Tonio_right click on the INF file, and choose install.....07:29
LureTonio_: this is why you installed ndiswrapper ;-)07:29
Tonio_once lure will be able to do this, I will applause :)07:29
Tonio_Lure: nope, I installed ndiswrapper because linux driver isn't working at all, even with firmwares extracted with fwcutter07:29
Tonio_;)07:29
LureI just apt-get dist-upgrade and done (my notebook works out of the box)07:29

Pygiso problems arise08:33
Tonio_Pygi: talkin' about the knetworkmanager scanning ?08:33
Tonio_ah okay..... known solution to that issue ?08:33
PygiTonio_: no, talking about the madwifi drivers ;)08:34
Pygiyup, there is solution08:34
Pygiit's located in -ng 08:34
Tonio_which is ?08:34
Tonio_what -ng ?08:34
Tonio_more details please ;)08:34
Pygiwe should port that part from madwifi-ng to madwifi-old, to support background scanning08:34
Tonio_ah okay ;)08:34
Pygibah ;)08:34
=== Tonio_ doesn't understand with only 20% required informations provided :)
Tonio_Pygi: why not simply upgrading madwifi globally ?08:35
PygiTonio_: we can't do that .... -ng is higly unstable, and cannot get into dapper08:35
Tonio_hum k08:36
Tonio_so we need to extract a diff and apply it as a patch.........08:36
Pygihuh, no08:36
Tonio_sounds complicated job for a non coder like me ;)08:36
Pygiwe can't extract entire diff08:36
Tonio_so what's needed exactly ?08:36
Pygiwe need just the part of background scanning support08:36

Luredo you have madwifi (I have ipw2200 - lucky me)?08:46

Pygibtw. about the patch _ion needed you for ...08:59
Tonio_but I was prompted to let knetworkmanager enter the wallet08:59
Pygiit was the one I sent you...08:59
Tonio_Pygi: ah ok ;)09:00
Lureno SVN yet, but at least another snapshot09:00
LureTonio_: you mean you need to enter WEP/WPA keys for each connect?09:00
Tonio_Lure: no, that works for me09:02
Tonio_but I can't find the wep key in kwallet ;)09:02
Tonio_Lure: are they supposed to be visible ? or are they stored as binary ?09:03
LureI think they are binary...09:04
Tonio_Lure: that explains this ;)09:05
Tonio_anyway, I don't have your problem :)09:05
LureTonio_: I have seen n-m-gnome, is n-m-kde in the works too?09:05
Lurecurrently I get apt-get upgrade reporting that is keeping n-m back.09:06
uniqriddell: i have updated packages for ipodslave, kio-apt and krusader at http://ubuntu.lnix.net/dapper/ - I would say kio-apt is pretty important for dapper, if not updated the breezy kio-apt will only users search for breezy, hoary and warty stuff at packages.ubuntu.com via apt:/. Krusader is just a update to 1.70.0, ipodslave is a update to fix (not tested, no ipod here) for #3303 (malone). 09:06
Tonio_Lure: n-m-kde is knetworkmanager :)09:08
Tonio_why should we change the name ?09:08
Tonio_hum.....09:08

PygiTonio_: we can wait for now ^_^09:09
Lurethere is upstream SVN only - no packages yet 09:10
Tonio_Pygi: I will do that for both libnl and knetworkmanager once we get the new sourcecode09:10
PygiTonio_: agreed ^_^09:11
PygiLure: when can we start lookin' at porting that code for -ng?09:11
LurePygi: did you already located the scan code in -ng? 09:11
PygiLure: nop ^_^09:11

LureTonio_: ?09:14
Tonio_Lure: isn't the code in lrm ?09:14

Lure;-)10:36
Riddellno mention of Kubuntu in that announcement I note :(10:37
LureYes, that is bad...10:38
Tonio_Riddell: can I ask your opinion on wlassistant vs knetworkmanager by default in dapper ?10:52
Tonio_Riddell: I think networkmanager is not mature enough to go actually....10:52
Tonio_having knetworkmanager in main, yes, but not by default to me10:53
Tonio_Riddell: another reason is that knetworkmanager isn't of any use for non-wifi users and it autostarts... while wlassistant needs to be launched manually10:56
PygiTonio_: make it not autostart?10:57
Tonio_Pygi: hum...... that's not it's purpose I think....10:57
RiddellTonio_: we should follow ubuntu in use of network-manager10:57
=== claydoh [n=clay@65.99.186.76] has joined #kubuntu-devel
PygiRiddel: ah10:57
RiddellTonio_: wlassistant can only do wifi, knetworkmanager can do wired as well10:57
Tonio_Riddell: hum, sounds logic ;)10:58
Tonio_Riddell: is ubuntu thinking of using it by default if our current stuff is approved ?10:58
PygiTonio_: most likely...10:58
Tonio_Riddell: yes, right, but knetworkmanager cannot let you choose your ip parameters10:59
Tonio_when wlassistant let you do that ;)10:59
Tonio_Riddell: but I agree we have to follow ubuntu on that point10:59
RiddellTonio_: you mean static IP?10:59
PygiTonio_: hack in that functionality10:59
Tonio_Riddell: yes10:59
Tonio_Riddell: only dhcp10:59
RiddellPygi: adding functionality to network-manager isn't the easiest of things :)10:59
Tonio_Riddell: hehe10:59
Riddellsuse spent a week just drawing charts of how the thing worked10:59
PygiRiddell: yes ...10:59
=== Pygi is painfully aware of that ;)
Tonio_Riddell: so if ubuntu doesn't use networkmanager by default, then we'll replace kwifimanager by wlassistant, right ?11:00
Pygi...but it can still be done...11:00
Tonio_Pygi: I think it is annoucned for a later version11:00
RiddellTonio_: I haven't tested wlassistant yet, but I suspect it's the best option11:01
PygiTonio_: yes, 0.711:01
Tonio_Riddell: "just works", yes :)11:01
LureRiddell: wlassitant just works - plain simple11:01
LureTonio_: ;-11:01
LureTonio_: ;-)11:02
Tonio_Lure: hehe11:02
LureIt just do not have WPA (and WPA is primary reason why NM has problems) ;-)11:02
Tonio_Lure: it doesn't work as a daemon too, so need to make connection for each boot11:02
Lureas drivers (like you airo) seems to have problem with it 11:02
PygiWPA is not reason why NM have problems11:02
Pygithe problem is madwifi -old11:03
Tonio_that means, we would eventually have wlassistant for manual connection and knetworkconf for default boot config11:03
Tonio_not very convenient, but better than what we had with breezy ;)11:03
LurePygi: yes, scan issue, but modes of operation NM causes several drivers not to respond properly11:03
Lurefor example, Riddell airo does not report any network, even though it works w/o NM11:04
LureTonio_: way better than kwifimanager11:04
Tonio_Lure: wlassistant ? of course it si better :) kwifimanager is a pain11:05
=== Lure thinks kwifimanager just gives false hopes to the users ;-)
Tonio_Lure: I never met someone who succeed in connecting on a network with it, without going in shell dhcping or something11:05
