Description Seth Nickell 2006-02-10 15:51:02 UTC

Description of problem:
NetworkManager should immediately initiate a wireless scan (*and* purge the old items) when coming out of suspend. Right now, it seems to scan much of the time, but it never removes the old items, so it never re-associates (until it scans again some minutes later). This renders NetworkManager extremely annoying for the standard laptop "shut lid, walk to new location, open lid" use case.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

If you guys want to hit the laptop use case for RHEL5, this is a pretty
important one to nail.

Comment 2 Andy Hudson 2006-03-09 20:55:17 UTC
Linked to this is the fact that when my laptop (Dell D610) comes out of suspend,
it will not connect to the wired network. I have to go to system-config-network
and activate eth0 to get NetworkManager to recognise something is happening.

Here's the output from the activating link window

Determining IP information for eth0.../etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth:
line 260:  4390 Terminated              /sbin/dhclient ${DHCLIENTARGS} ${DEVICE}

Appears fixed in RAWHIDE.
