FWIW, I just downloaded the koji nm build from this morning and it doesn't help. NM wireless is busted. Wired works fine though.
In what way are you seeing 'busted'? Dan just fixed a bug that would cause a traceback when trying to use wireless without a wired device plugged in, are you seeing something different?
Yeah. NM appears to think there are no wireless interfaces: the "Wireless Networks" option (right click on NM applet) is greyed out. 'ifconfig wlan0' thinks there is:
[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig wlan0 wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:02:6F:FC:3C UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) [root@localhost ~]#
Also have 'giant nm-applet icon' (probably about 5 cm wide).
[running NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.3.svn2844.fc8 and friends]
I think this is the kernel's fault. 2.6.23-0.185.rc6.git7.fc8 works fine, -0.187 doesn't. BZ at 301011.
Not completely for me. I had working wireless this morning with the 187.rc6.git7 kernel but it doesn't work after todays update with that same kernel. I'll try the older kernel to see if it helps though.
It seems I had wireless running for a short while with 0.187 (left the machine unattended after booting), but not enough to do an update. After it stopped working, I couldn't get it back up and rebooted into the older kernel
