Description of problem: After upgrading to NetworkManager-0.9.4-1.git20120328.fc16.x86_64, it seems I am unable to login. The gnome-shell presents the startup-failure screen. When downgrading to NetworkManager-0.9.2-1.fc16, the problem goes away. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): * NetworkManager-0.9.4-1.git20120328.fc16.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: 1. Manually configure a Network bridge following instructions from libvirt.org > /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-em1 has NM_CONTROLLED=no > /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-br0 also has NM_CONTROLLED=no 2. Upgrade to latest NM from 'updates-testing' 3. Login to desktop Actual results: * Gnome shell fails to start Expected results: * After upgrading NM, the desktop should start without error Additional info: * See libnm-glib backtrace in attachment#574498 [details]

I was triggering it with NetworkManager enabled - as the install was done through HTTP. I hadn't done anything special to the network interface. systemctl tells me: NetworkManager.service loaded active running Network Manager The /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 tells me: [root@f17 ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 UUID="a2d015cf-1d0b-41bb-a851-e7669415383f" NM_CONTROLLED="yes" BOOTPROTO="dhcp" DEVICE="eth0" ONBOOT="yes" HWADDR=00:16:3E:FA:8F:9C TYPE=Ethernet DEFROUTE=yes PEERDNS=yes PEERROUTES=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes IPV6INIT=no NAME="System eth0" I had download the NetworkManager-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17 and I am still hitting this. rpm -qa | grep NetworkManager tells me: [root@f17 ~]# rpm -qa | grep Network NetworkManager-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-pptp-0.9.3.997-1.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-gnome-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-vpnc-0.9.3.997-1.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-openconnect-0.9.3.997-1.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-gtk-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 evolution-NetworkManager-3.4.0.1-1.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-openvpn-0.9.3.997-1.fc17.i686 NetworkManager-glib-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 And it here is something more strange: root@f17 ~]# nmcli nm RUNNING STATE WIFI-HARDWARE WIFI WWAN-HARDWARE WWAN running connected enabled enabled enabled disabled [root@f17 ~]# su - konrad [konrad@f17 ~]$ nmcli nm ** (process:3305): WARNING **: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Rejected send message, 3 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.53" (uid=1000 pid=3305 comm="nmcli nm ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" member="GetAll" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" (uid=0 pid=443 comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon ") Error: nmcli (0.9.4.0) and NetworkManager (unknown) versions don't match. Force execution using --nocheck, but the results are unpredictable. So: [root@f17 ~]# rpm -qf `which nmcli` NetworkManager-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 [root@f17 ~]# ps -eff|grep Network root 443 1 0 09:02 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --no-daemon root 3313 3183 0 10:44 hvc0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto Network [root@f17 ~]# rpm -qf `which NetworkManager` NetworkManager-0.9.4-3.git20120403.fc17.i686 [root@f17 ~]#
I'd say that there can be some problem with D-Bus or PolicyKit causing the rejected messages. But the crash of /usr/bin/gnome-shell in libnm-glib should be fixed. Try to obtain some logs to found out what's the problem (~/.xsession-errors, /var/log/messages)
Uninstalling fprintd (and fprintd-pam) fixed it.

Nominating this as a Beta NTH so we can discuss whether to pull it into RC4. My best guess as to the circumstance that produces this bug is running Shell with the NetworkManager service disabled, though I couldn't reproduce it that simply when I tried in a VM. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
Discussed at 2012-04-09 blocker review meeting. We agreed this is rejected as NTH as the trigger - disabling NM - is not something anyone's likely to do on a live image, so fixing this with an update should be good enough. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
