Output of dmesg after fiddling around
I cannot find any logic for this, now when I stopped the NetworkManager service, the WIFI reappeared and cannot enable the 3g card. Comment: I was unaware that the NetworkService restarts when trying to stop it. Systemd is not very familiar for me. Correction to previous: NetworkManager, NOT NetworkService. This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Created attachment 817196 [details] Output of dmidecode Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Disable WIFI or mobile broadband from NetworkManager 2. 3. Actual results: NetworkManager says: "hardware disabled" for WIFI and "unavailable" for 3g card. Expected results: Ability to re-enable from NetworkManager menu. Additional info: hardware: Fujitsu Amilo Pro v3525 I managed to get the wifi working by: rmmod iwl3945 modprobe iwl3945 service NetworkManager restart But.. this did not quite work second time when i tried to redo these steps. Weird thing, sometimes when i stop the NetworkManager service, I can get the 3g card visible again.
