Description Peter Stolz 2010-07-25 15:26:32 UTC

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100626 SUSE/3.6.6-1.2 Firefox/3.6.6

I updated from 11.2 to 11.3. I use KDE 4 (11.2 and 11.3). Now the networkmanager is disabled. I can not activate it and I have no network connection.
So I have to use the traditional method with ifup. But I use a laptop and networkmanager would be better and it worked with 11.2.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. It definitely not work
2.
3.

I found in the internet the following command:
solid-network set networking enabled.

After this command the networkmanager works.

Did you happen to have a failed suspent? Forcing you to reboot or do a fresh boot on power on?

Comment 3 Peter Stolz 2010-07-26 10:54:01 UTC

I can not remember if there was a failed suspent. It worked after the update to 11.3 and I recognized the problem the next day. So I can not answer your question.

Comment 4 Tim Mohlmann 2010-07-26 11:09:02 UTC

Well, since the command

solid-network set networking enabled

wakes you knetwork manager up again, I'm quite sure this bug is similar to #552862, so I will mark it as a duplicate. The problem also excist for the GNOME network manager. It misses the command to "wake up" the network again after suspend. Solutions seem to be underway.
