Hello all,
I'm experiencing breakage for wicd-1.7.2.4-i486-1_slack13.37 package.
When plugging in wired ethernet cable, I am not getting the *COMBINED* action of:
- wired autoconnects
- wireless auto disconnects.
Again, those two actions ARE supposed to be occuring at the same time.
Then when I unplug the cable the wifi should connect and the eth0 interface should drop.
In addition, when I try to configure the wired interfaces settings, I am unable to get my settings to store, pressing OK/enter has no affect. The gui is unresponsive. I can only close the window, without storing settings by hitting the enter key.
However all of the above DOES work correctly for me with wicd-1.7.2.1-i486-1_slack13.37.txz.
This behavior has worked for me for years. /ME loves wicd
Nothing has changed on this system except official updates for about a month, and certainly nothing that I think would cause the breakage.
I verified the hashes of my /etc and there all good.
I also did an additional try of the latest version, by removing wicd entirely, and it's cruft with:
rm /var/log/wicd/ -rf ; rm /var/lib/wicd/ -rf ; rm /usr/lib/wicd/ -rf ; rm /etc/wicd/ -rf ; rm /var/run/wicd/ -rf
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Fogie.
