Description of problem: NetworkManager fails to start (both at boot and after login) and complains about missing shared lib: libiw.so.28 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NeworkManager 1:0.6.5-3.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.boot 2.OR 3.just type NetworkManager in a root shell Actual results: "NetworkManager: error while loading shared libraries: libiw.so.28: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" Obviously eth0 will not work Expected results: NetworkManager should start Additional info: I don't have any libiw in my computer, and couldn't find any libiw***.rpm, maybe a dependency is missing? BTW If I manually ifup eth0, it just works.
It should be in the wireless-tools package.... wonder why you don't have that, the dependencies should have picked it up.
Installing wireless-tools solved the problem, I wonder why I didn't have it installed too (maybe because I don't have a Wireless device, but I don't think the installer makes this kind of guess...) I think this could be closed, thanks for the fast reply...
K, closing out. Also for future reference, if you know the name of the file you need, you can always do something like: yum install /usr/lib/libiw.so.28
