KNetworkManager doesn't find any devices

efossvold · 2006-11-05 22:34:51

I just installed KNetworkManager, but it says no devices found. I reboot to make sure all service were restarted, but still nothing..

networkmanager and networkmanager-dispatcher are running. Anything else I need to do to get this working?

You read this guide? http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Networkmanage

Yah, I did. My rc.conf looks like this:

lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
eth0="dhcp"
eth1="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(lo !eth0 !eth1)
#

#   - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
#
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
#
# Enable these network profiles at boot-up.  These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)
#   - set to 'menu' to present a menu during boot-up (dialog package required)
#   - prefix an entry with a ! to disable it
#
# Network profiles are found in /etc/network-profiles

Using ifplugd in parallel could not be such a good idea. And you should put "dbus hal" before "dhcdbd networkmanager".

If that still does not work, make sure that your modules for your network-devices get loaded.

I removed ifplugd, working well now, thanks a bunch. Didn't have to add dbus and hal, they start by themselves, I think powersaved loads them.

This may be way off base, but I'm pretty sure that I needed to comment out network in my daemons array to get networkmanager to work correctly.

thecrazylol · 2006-12-15 16:45:03

jeaaaa big thaaanx it is running nearly perfect, but i have renamed my ethernet device to myeth0 and wlan to mywlan0, now (because of the outcommenting network) my devices are called eth0 and eth1 :-/
1. i hate that
2. i have had problems at least with the network daemon, sometime both one would be called eth0 :-/ and nothing network connection could be established, so i want to get the aliases back
how i can do that with the networkmanager?

but i am happy that my wlan is running with wpa psk now *jumping*

You can use udev rules or /etc/iftab to name your interfaces persistently. Look at the wiki for udev info, and do a man iftab for info on it.
