 Posted: Sat Jun 08, 2024 12:19 am Post subject: X + GNOME - no internet icon and no DNS |
 |
|
Hi, A::,
I have the following issue.
My ISP cut off service couple of days ago.
I was able to repair it by paying the bill, but since then I losy the Network icon in the GNOME top bar.
Moreover - the Network settings not working properly.
When I open the "Settings" and go to "Network" it shows an error "Exclamation mar" and the following is displayed:
| Quote: |
Network Unavailable
An error has occurred and network cannot be used.
Error details: Network Manager is not running
|
However this is not true, as I am posting this message from that machine.
Whats more - I can ping google.com, but I can't ping 8.8.8.8.
Could someone please help?

As you can see I do have an IP and can access the Web. But I can't do anything IP related.
Thank you. |

Then you have reached google.com via IPv6 ... and your IPv4 does not work. Have you set your IPv4 address (192.168.1.233) static or do you get it via DHCP. Can you ping your own router (maybe: 192.168.1.1?) If this works, then your IPv4 problem to 8.8.8.8 is caused either by your ISP or wrong settings in your router.

Yes, it looks like I can ping the router.
I called the ISP (Comcast) and they said that everything i set up properly.
What parameters in the modem should I check?
Also - I'd like to see that icon for the Internet access on top of the screen.
Thank you. |

AS you can see everything works.
And also everything works on Windows.
Thank you.
P.S.: The reason I'm looking into this is because while I can access GitHub from Windows and Mac, I can't do that from my Linux Gentoo box. And of course I need the Network Icon in GNOME... |

Hi,
More info:
Gor the test I set the FW on the modem to be "Minimal Security (Low)".
And I was able to access github.
However when the FW is on the "Highest: - only Windows/OSX can access it.
I don't understand this.
I don't have a FW turned on on my machine on Gentoo.
Anything else I can do to debug it?
And I do need the Network Icon in GNOME...
Thank you.

Hi,
This laptop does not have a wired connection.
When I installed the OS - everything worked and I used DHCP to connect.
Initially it had Wayland with GNOME, but because it has touch screen and Wayland right now has issues I went to update it and put X11.
It was working fine, but then the service was off.
When the service turned back on I lost the icon and the signal was come-and-go.
I got new modem from Comcast, but it didn't help. I can browse, windows and OSX works, but not this laptop with Gentoo.
Thank you. |

Hi,
I guess that update picked up the NetworkManager among other things:
| Code: |
igor@WaylandGnome ~/wxFork $ emerge -pv networkmanager
* Last emerge --sync was 77d 14h 57m 31s ago.
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 39.00 s (backtrack: 0/20).

Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 KiB
* IMPORTANT: 23 news items need reading for repository 'gentoo'.
* Use eselect news read to view new items.
igor@WaylandGnome ~/wxFork $
|
So what is the way forward?
If I remove it - I'm sure something else will break.
But if I keep it - I will not have an idea whether the network is operational or not..
I guess I can check what pulled it in and see what is needed...
Thank you.
EDIT:
| Code: |
WaylandGnome /home/igor/wxFork # equery d networkmanager
* These packages depend on networkmanager:
app-misc/tracker-miners-3.6.2 (networkmanager ? net-misc/networkmanager)
gnome-base/gnome-control-center-45.2 (networkmanager ? >=net-misc/networkmanager-1.24.0[modemmanager])

(vala ? net-misc/networkmanager[vala])
www-client/firefox-115.9.0 (kernel_linux ? net-misc/networkmanager)
WaylandGnome /home/igor/wxFork #

which means I can't remove it - too much depends on it, including some GNOME packages.
I tried this:
| Code: |
WaylandGnome /home/igor/wxFork # USE="-networkmanager" emerge -pvuDN @world
* Last emerge --sync was 77d 15h 23m 29s ago.
* IMPORTANT: config file '/etc/portage/package.use/zz-autounmask' needs updating.
* See the CONFIGURATION FILES and CONFIGURATION FILES UPDATE TOOLS
* sections of the emerge man page to learn how to update config files.
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

so not everything will be rebuilt.
P.P.S.: the icon I'm talking about is the little network icon which is located in the top right corner of the GNOME screen (looks like 3 little machines connected with wires). I don't think its a NetworkManager" icon - I believe it is a basic network status icon. |

That is not good. If you really did not read, nor did what those news items are telling, than you have and will have a lot of problems....
Since you have installed networkmanager you should use it. Click on it to manger your active connections and a right click gives advanced menu. If you have a manual IP setup you can manage it there. DHCP, too.

Hi,
That installation was not intentional. It was pulled in by the default USE-flags/dependency.
But I guess I should switch to it, right?
And I don't know what icon you are talking about.
I don't have a static IP - DHCP is used.
Thank you.
P.S. I will try to go thru those news... |

Hi,
I presume I should remove the dhcpcd daemon, since it will be NM who will handle it, right?
Thank you. |

Hi,
I checked the page here.
Had to rebuild the kernel, because some options were not turned on.
After rebuilding and re-installing the kernel and then rebooting, I lost the network acces. My "wlan0" service doesn't want to start anymore.
I added the option to turn off the predictable network names and its still not starting.
Anyone knows what could be the issue?
Thank you.
P.S.:
This is what I see during boot:
| Code: |
Bringing up interface wlan0
Caching network module dependencies
ERROR: interface wlan0 does not exist
Ensure you have loded the correct kernel module for your hardware
ERROR: net,wlan0 failed to start
ERROR: cannot start netmount as net.wlan0 would not start
|
However, I do have a "net.wlan0" link inside /etc/init.d.
Any idea what is going on?
Thank you. |

Hi,
So, after looking at dmesg and leaving the laptop for a day I have a following conclusions:
First and foremost:
This laptop have a touch screen.
Initially it has Wayland along with GNOME. However Wayland experienced erratic mouse bhaviour, where the mouse was moving by itself without me moving it or even touching it.
So I decided to put X on it.
Everything ws working fine until this issue with NetworkManager hit.
Meaning that after rebuilding the kernel according to the guidelines and removing dhcpcd, the mouse erratic behavior is back.
I tried to go back to the old kernel (make menuconfig saved the old config, so I just renamed it), but this behavior staill happened.
Second:
I looked at the dmesg output. There is nothing explicitly wrong there. No, errors reported, except the issue with cfg80211 functions not being found. I will post this log tomorrow for you to review.
But because of the issue 1, I think I will have to remove NetworkManager and go back to basic dhcpcd.
Thank you. |

And this is maybe the reason why the mouse behaves erratic?
|
It's possible.
However, it was not happenning when I run it on dhcpcd...

In dmesg you should see the interface names and maybe a rename, thus the problem with the init

I will post the dmesg tonight.
