Comment 1 Jaroslav Reznik 2011-04-29 16:26:46 UTC 
The problem is - knm uses partially NM 0.8 compat interfaces but the main NetworkManager object is from 0.9 and it NM 0.9 changes NM_STATEs to more granular system (compare http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager//developers/spec-08.html#type-NM_STATE and http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/developers/migrating-to-09/spec.html#type-NM_STATE) not documented in migration guide (only new device states are documented).

XML introspection patch
Comment 3 Jaroslav Reznik 2011-04-29 17:52:54 UTC 
Ops, sorry, it really uses Compat interface... But still somehow related to improper state processing.
Comment 4 Jaroslav Reznik 2011-04-29 21:48:48 UTC 
The problem is clear now - it does not use generated definitions from XML introspection file but unfortunatelly from NetworkManager.h (from NetworkManager-devel package) that's already in version 0.9. It should not work but there's a #define for compat reasons that assignes NM_STATE_CONNECTED value of NM_STATE_CONNECTED_GLOBAL. 

I'll post the patch tomorrow.
