Description Andrew Martin 2010-05-21 15:00:24 UTC
Description of problem:

   NetworkManager no longer finds Atheros wireless card on EEE PC 1005HA (ath9k driver module) - simply states "wireless is disabled".

   This has worked perfectly since I originally installed Fedora 11 and did a yum update, but broke after last night's yum update. Wired connection is fine.

   lsmod shows that the ath9k module is loaded


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

   1.NetworkManager-glib-0.7.2.997-1.fc11.i586
   1.NetworkManager-0.7.2.997-1.fc11.i586
   1.NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.2.997-1.fc11.i586

   (from /var/log/yum.log - updates applied 20 May 21:33)

How reproducible:

   A simple yum update on evening of 20th May 2010 resulted in the wireless card no longer being detected.



Steps to Reproduce:

2.
3.
  
Actual results:

Comment 1 Andrew Martin 2010-05-21 15:29:41 UTC
As a confirmation (and to get my laptop working again) I just downgraded those packages to:
   NetworkManager-glib-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.i586
   NetworkManager-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.i586
   NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.1-4.git20090414.fc11.i586
and all works fine...

Comment 2 Dan Williams 2010-05-22 16:39:43 UTC
Can you grab some logs from /var/log/messages from NetworkManager?  It may be that rfkill support in NetworkManager is detecting your wifi as off.

What kernel version do you have? ('uname -a' will tell you)

Also, can you grab the output of 'lsmod' too?

And lastly, the output of:

cat /sys/class/rfkill/*/type
cat /sys/class/rfkill/*/state

when the problem occurs.  THanks!

Comment 3 Andrew Martin 2010-05-22 20:27:24 UTC
Hi Dan.

Hopefully this answers all your questions...

Best wishes,
Andrew

Can you grab the following information for me?

1) rpm -qv hal

2) dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.Hal /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_rfkill_eeepc_wlan_wlan org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.KillSwitch.GetPower

Thanks!

When this happens, can you also grab the output of 'nm-tool' for me?

Comment 7 Andrew Martin 2010-06-01 16:41:48 UTC
Sorry for the delay - I've been away. Here you go. I've replaced actual hardware addresses with nn:nn:nn:nn:nn:nn, but the broken version reports 00:00:00:00:00:00

I've added some debugging information upstream to help diagnose your issue.  When the new build hits koji, I'll ask you to install it and run it to get the debugging output so we can figure out what's really going wrong.  Thanks for keeping on top of this!

Comment 9 Fedora Update System 2010-06-10 05:26:44 UTC
NetworkManager-0.7.2.997-2.git20100609.fc11 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 11.
http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/NetworkManager-0.7.2.997-2.git20100609.fc11

Comment 10 Dan Williams 2010-06-10 05:28:35 UTC
Could you please grab the packages from this update:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/NetworkManager-0.7.2.997-2.git20100609.fc11

and install them, then run NM like so:

service NetworkManager stop
NM_WIFI_ENABLE_DEBUG=1 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon

and copy the output into this bug?  It should help us debug the problem and figure out what's going wrong for you here.

What is the contents of:

/var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state

?

Comment 13 Dan Williams 2010-06-22 18:32:50 UTC
Can you grab the appropriate packages from this Koji scratch build?

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=2265965

(see the "Descendent Tasks" link and click on the task for your architecture, then grab the packages from the bottom of that Descendent Task page).

Then run it in the same manner as before, like:

NM_WIFI_ENABLE_DEBUG=1 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon

and we'll get a bit more debug output that will help us isolate the issue.  Thanks!

Comment 14 Bug Zapper 2010-06-28 15:44:41 UTC
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 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.

Comment 15 Red Hat Bugzilla 2023-09-14 01:21:15 UTC
The needinfo request[s] on this closed bug have been removed as they have been unresolved for 1000 days
