NetworkManager: <info> Error getting killswitch power arguments: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs - Argument 0 is specified to be of type "uint32", but is actually of type "int32"


appears in /var/log/messages every five seconds, not much of a problem but it does cause the hd on my laptop to spin up constantly which is annoying.

I've updated the bug with a fix for this, you only need the first patch uint32 to int32 to fix this error.

Hello!

Is something new about this problem?
Link to patch above doesn't work and nothing has been changed after upgrading to the last hal.

May be there is some way to turn off this stuff in NM or completly prevent NM form writing to log?

EDIT: forgot check for last version of NM - now, with version 0.6.6 there is no such problem.
