Description paul59584 2011-07-27 13:03:12 UTC

Description of problem:
gtraffic not working in F15
all counters, down/up-loaded and total all stay on 0.00 B

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Name        : gtraffic
Arch        : noarch
Version     : 1.01
Release     : 6.fc15


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start gtraffic
2. 
3.
  
Actual results:
gtraffic not counting traffic

Expected results:
gtraffic counts traffic

Additional info:
log started/duration works but not traffic counters
I've put severity high because this will stop me using F15, will have to stick with F14

Comment 1 paul59584 2011-07-28 09:21:34 UTC

think it may be NetworkManager that is the problem

i.e. output from
qdbus --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/2

in f15 is missing
signal void org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Serial.PppStats(uint, uint)

so i guess its not sending PppStats to dbus

Comment 2 paul59584 2011-07-28 12:34:11 UTC

from:
NetworkManager D-Bus Reference Manual 
Migrating from NetworkManager 0.8 to NetworkManager 0.9
Consolidated Modem Devices

"Along with this change, the org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Serial interface has been removed as it's functionality will be incorporated into the org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Modem interface in the future."

so i guess you can forget about this bug report

Comment 3 Christoph Wickert 2011-10-07 08:18:08 UTC

Thanks for digging that up. I'm afraid there is nothing I can do and I will have to remove the package from Fedora 16. Too bad I cannot withdraw it from F15 after the release. I wish the NM developer/maintainer had warned me earlier.
