Screenshot when wired and the Wifi has been disabled from system settings.
It's not clear how to reproduce this. I don't understand step 3. Please try again with the current NetworkManager and gnome-shell packages as many things have been fixed in this area. (In reply to comment #2) > It's not clear how to reproduce this. I don't understand step 3. "Display the popup" means click on the NM icon at the top in the shell to show the menu. The screenshot show that. > Please try again with the current NetworkManager and gnome-shell packages as > many things have been fixed in this area. Whatever is current in F16 still does it. Even with the Intel wireless now (I swapped drives to a similar laptop with a different wireless) Does the WiFi actually work? If not, please grab /var/log/messages and attach that. If the problem is that device status (such as connecting, unavailable, etc.) is displayed instead of ON/OFF, this is Gnome shell bug (design feature?). Would you post output of these commands (when you have "unavailable" in Gnome shell): $ nmcli nm $ nmcli -p -f general dev list $ nmcli con status (In reply to comment #4) > Does the WiFi actually work? Of course it does. Otherwise I would have said it does not work. > If the problem is that device status (such as connecting, unavailable, etc.) > is displayed instead of ON/OFF, this is Gnome shell bug (design feature?). > > Would you post output of these commands (when you have "unavailable" in Gnome > shell): > $ nmcli nm > $ nmcli -p -f general dev list > $ nmcli con status % nmcli nm RUNNING STATE WIFI-HARDWARE WIFI WWAN-HARDWARE WWAN running connected enabled enabled enabled enabled % nmcli -p -f general dev list =============================================================================== Device details =============================================================================== GENERAL.DEVICE: em1 GENERAL.TYPE: 802-3-ethernet GENERAL.DRIVER: e1000e GENERAL.HWADDR: F0:DE:F1:9F:AA:E0 GENERAL.STATE: unavailable ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =============================================================================== Device details =============================================================================== GENERAL.DEVICE: wlan1 GENERAL.TYPE: 802-11-wireless GENERAL.DRIVER: iwlwifi GENERAL.HWADDR: 08:11:96:A3:6A:9C GENERAL.STATE: connected ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- % nmcli con status NAME UUID DEVICES DEFAULT VPN Auto MyWifi 0da2c749-8889-4642-b9b6-fdfb5f100414 wlan1 yes no This shows that WiFi is connected. So, if you have "unavaliable" for wireless in Gnome shell menu then it's Gnome shell bug. This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. 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 '16'. 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 16'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 16 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. 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 Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
