[SOLVED] Networkmanager 1.0.2-4 killed my Wi-Fi

I've been running an ASUS EeePC 1000 for almost a year now over my 802.11n Verizon FiOS WPA2 connection. Everything had been working fine until networkmanager got updated from 1.0.2-3 to 1.0.2-4. I couldn't even find a network connection unless I went hardwire. Downgrading to 1.0.2-3 fixed the problem, but what was the issue in the first place? Did something major change from one version to the next?

You can view the changes for Network Manager over here - https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … orkmanager

I can see a fix for FS# 44878,  which states that Network Manager doesn't automatically rely on resolvconf for managing resolv.conf anymore. You might need to add

set rc-manager=resolvconf

to /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf.

This fixed it—thank you! Can you please add this to the wiki?

Glad to see you fixed your problem, but I didn't really face any such problems even though I'm using resolvconf with Network Manager just like you. I think we should wait and hear other's opinions before making any changes to the wiki.
