Hi everyone,
I'm trying to migrate from Connman to Network Manager for my network needs (as well as from e17 to xmonad) and I'm seeing some strange behavior. I can get the network manager applet running, but it won't connect to any wireless networks. I see a bunch of networks floating around in the connections list, but if I click on one, nothing happens. Furthermore, if I try to connect by command line, I get the following weirdness
Input:
nmcli con up uuid f767eb89-ccbc-4dbe-bf12-af216ab8f9ff ap A0:21:B7:72:A3:CE
(the uuid is for my wlan0 interface and the ap is the BSSID of my network).
Output:
Active connection state: activating
Active connection path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/0
** (process:2012): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting 'State' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/0: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
state: unknown
Error: Connection activation failed.
I'm fairly sure that I have my policy kit working correctly. I have dbus and network manager as daemons and I logged in to an xmonad session using GDM, which should do my policy management for me, right?
I think its the wrong error message for a policy kit error anyways.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

I switched to wicd, so this isn't an issue anymore, I guess... still not sure what was going wrong, though.
