 Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2012 7:42 am Post subject: [SOLVED] Network Manager, Wicd, a little help here... |
 |
|
I have a fresh Gentoo installation on my laptop and I try to enable Network Manager so I can connect to the Internet with Wireless Networks.
I followed the Wiki instructions, but the wireless light is still off. I have installed nm-applet:
| Code: | rpil rpil # eix gnome-extra/nm-applet
[I] gnome-extra/nm-applet
Available versions: 0.8 0.8.4 ~0.9.0 ~0.9.2.0 ~0.9.2.0-r1 0.9.4.1 {{bluetooth debug}}
Installed versions: 0.9.4.1(10:00:23 09/05/12)(bluetooth)
Homepage: http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/
Description: GNOME applet for NetworkManager |
When I give the command to show it to the panel, I receive this:
| Code: | rpil rpil # nm-applet
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "gnomesegvhandler"
GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is a missing or misconfigured D-Bus session bus daemon. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: The connection is closed)
** (nm-applet:13339): WARNING **: Failed to initialize D-Bus: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
(nm-applet:13339): GConf-WARNING **: Directory `/apps/nm-applet' was not being monitored by GConfClient 0x816a2b8 |
dbus is in the default runlevel:
| Code: | rpil rpil # rc-update show
NetworkManager | default
bootmisc | boot
consolekit | default
dbus | default
devfs | sysinit
dmesg | sysinit
fsck | boot
hostname | boot
hwclock | boot
keymaps | boot
killprocs | shutdown
local | default
localmount | boot
modules | boot
mount-ro | shutdown
mtab | boot
net.eth0 | default
net.lo | boot
netmount | default
procfs | boot
root | boot
savecache | shutdown
swap | boot
sysctl | boot
syslog-ng | default
termencoding | boot
udev | sysinit
udev-postmount | default
urandom | boot
vixie-cron | default
xdm | default |
What is missing?
