NetworkMenu: fix parameters to _findConnection (1.09 KB, patch)
2011-03-31 16:05 UTC, Giovanni Campagna 		committed Details | Review

Description Matthias Clasen 2011-03-26 01:03:50 UTC 
Seen with 2.91.92.

Start nm with an unmanaged eth0. No wired device in the menu at all (is that correct ? I thought it should perhaps show up anyway, as 'unmanaged' ?)

Now remove NM_CONTROLLED=no from the ifcfg-eth0 file. NetworkManager will pick up that change, and the device appears in the menu, but it has two 'System eth0' connections below it.
Comment 1 Giovanni Campagna 2011-03-26 14:11:02 UTC 
This could be a NetworkManager bug (creating two "system eth0" connection), or a shell bug (adding the same connection twice). Can you check with d-feet how many connection paths are exposed by NM?

NetworkMenu: fix parameters to _findConnection

NMDevice._findConnection expects an uuid as parameter, but
checkConnection was passing a NMConnection object. This caused
exists to be always false, thus the connection was added again every
time the 'updated' signal was emitted.
