NetworkManager goes into a loop during suspend/Resume cycles
Last modified: 2008-07-02 19:20:48 EDT
Description of problem: I've managed to reproduce this twice now, both times at an office where I don't normally spend time. Basically, when changing network ports during suspend/resume cycles, or simply removing the cable and resuming, NetworkManager goes into a spin/restart loop and fills the logfile at a rapid rate ( 1.8 Gb large /var/log/messages the last time, the machine was unusable and I had to hard reset it to recover) Since it's been intermittant, I can't reproduce the error reliably, and I didn't think to keep the huge logfiles either (btw, the log viewer program barfs and locks during startup with those logs, they are a fair bit larger than system RAM.. ) Anyhow, this is a mental tracker for myself as well as others: close lid, unplug cable and plug it into another machine, do work, change outlet and plug back into suspended laptop, then resume. Version: NetworkManager 0.7.0-0.9.4.scn3675 fc9 x86_64
Likely the same root cause as 448889 even though that bug is about killswitches. Fixed upstream. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 448889 ***
