Yes, my son is trying other Distros/Desktops. The same happens most of the times on openSUSE/GNOME 11.0. NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.0.r729-7.4 NetworkManager-glib-0.7.0.r3685-7.4 NetworkManager-0.7.0.r3685-7.4 Sounds definitely like a global/upstream bug. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers When this happens, can you take a screenshot of it and attach it? You can do this by hitting the Print Screen button on your keyboard, or using the Applications -> Accessories -> Take Screenshot program. Thanks! I will, but be aware that it's not a very frequent occurrence - maybe 7-10 days between occurrences, so it may be some time. Do you have multiple monitors connected as separate desktops, or do you sometimes plug a second monitor in when this happens? *** Bug 507314 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** No - no second monitor involved in my case. Matthias, any ideas here? I have not yet seen this again, but I'm not using wireless very much at the moment. However, in case it helps here is a description of what I see when it does happen. The wireless signal strength icon disappears from the system tray and appears as a stand-alone icon somewhere high on the desktop - ISTR that it does not consistently appear in a particular place. No, doesn't sound like anything I've ever seen happening. I've seen a couple of mentions of it on user lists, but not enough to think that it is a frequent event. Unfortunately wireless reception is not good in this office, so I'm not able to say whether it's still happening here. Ok, please let us know if it happens again, and when you see the problem, please also attach your ~/.xsession-errors file (from your home directory) to see if maybe there are some log messages we can use to help debug. Thanks! This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. 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 prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 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 please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Closing due to lack of response; if it does happen again please re-open and we'll keep trying to debug. Thanks! |
