Bug Description

When resuming from a suspend or hibernate, networkmanager doesn't seem to find any network interfaces. I am running an up-to-date (Apr 19) version of dapper and I have an ipw2200 and a b44.

Running "sudo killall NetworkManager; sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager start" fixes the issue, nm-applet will connect to the newly started network manager, which will find the interfaces and instantly bring the network back online.

Highly annoying bug as it basically breaks what networkmanager is supposed to fix.

I have the same problem here with all my networking.

I have created the following files:

/etc/acpi/suspend.d/05-network-manager.sh

#!/bin/sh

dbus-send --system \
  --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
  /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager \
  org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.sleep

/etc/acpi/resume.d/91-network-manager.sh

#!/bin/sh

dbus-send --system \
  --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
  /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager \
  org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.wake

This seems to have solved the problem.

Wait for it to connect again, then suspend your computer and resume it. After it's connected again, attach the nm.log file to this bug.

You can restore "normal" operation afterwards by stopping NM with ^C then running /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager start

Hmm. It did work when the suspend time was short(<15 sec, short enough for PowerManager to think the suspend failed...). A longer suspend causes the problem. This error is reported after a longer suspend:

I have found that I can work around this problem by right clicking on the nm and unchecking the Enable Networking PRIOR TO sleep.

Update: seems like even if Network Manager (more specifically nm-applet) says that no network devices could be found, I can still connect to the network and do my thing.

I think this is because eth0 in network-admin is set to "Enable this connection" and DHCP. Of course, disabling this connection also disables it in nm-applet.

Can someone confirm this?

Ealden,
You didn't have the problem of this bug in the first place, just like Simon Hepburn. You both just had a misconfigured system. The rest of us have correctly configured systems, but we are having trouble with getting the network back online after resume. We need to take manual action, where NetworkManager should just take care of this without any action required.

This bug is still valid and not fixed.

Sigh, despite earlier success I faced the same problem this morning resuming laptop that had been suspended overnight.

Will leave John's scripts in place as they don't seem to be doing any harm, but n-m is still not working correctly with inspiron 2200.

I've found a solution that seems to be quite similar to the one submitted by John Cooper but which relies on other commands to stop network-manager at suspend (hibernate) time and to start it at resume time in order to have the connection reactivated.

Anyway, it works well for me under Kubuntu Dapper, freshly dist-upgraded.

Here it is if you want to try it in case the other one doesn't work:

Just create these 2 files and be sure to make theme executable (chmod +x):

/etc/acpi/suspend.d/07-network-manager.sh
#!/bin/sh
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop

and

/etc/acpi/resume.d/99-network-manager.sh
#!/bin/sh
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager start

Good luck!

BTW, there is one unusual thing about the nc6220 I'm using: it seems that whether the built in ethernet and built in wireless is eth1 or eth2 is random and unpredictable (which might be confusing NM).

And why eth0 doesn't seem to exist, I have no clue.

Hi, same problem here on a Samsung P35, ipw2200 and 8139too. I tried several priorities for scripts in /etc/acpi/{suspend.d,resume.d}. It isn't necessary to stop Networkmanager, but use

/usr/bin/dbus-send --system \
      --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
      --type=method_call \
      /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager \
      org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.sleep

and .wake instead of .sleep. As far I can see it's see, it's a timing problem. I tried to wake up nm before and after ifup, but it didn't work for me - only after logging in.
I noticed, after resume both devices are still down and not shown by ifconfig.
resume from s2ram works for me - resume from s2disk not!

leonbottou (leon-bottou) wrote :

I believe that the problem is deeper,
and I think I have solved it.

My problem always was that network manager
would not detect the trusted networks.

So I tried understanding how scanning is implemented
on the ipw2200. I loaded the ipw2200 module
with associate=0 to make sure I had full control.
The 'iwlist eth1 scan' command is bizarre because
it only starts a scan when you run it as root.
Otherwise it simply returns the result of the last scan.
I used one terminal as root to start the scans,
and another as myself to see how and when
the detected networks appear.

It seems that ipw2200 implements scanning as
a lightweight operation that can take place simultaneously
with other activity. It apparently maintains a list
of detected networks. Running iwlist eth1 scan
as non root returns this list (which includes the
associated network when applicable.)
When you start scanning, results
are added to that list over the next few seconds.
They stay in the list about 12 seconds and
disappear.

It seems that the network manager code
assumes that scanning is very fast (and very intensive).
It starts scanning, waits 0.25 seconds,
and reads the list of detected networks.
Scanning happens every 15 or 20 seconds
depending on something I do not understand.
That means that a first scan returns next to nothing.
The actual results of the scan get added to the list
over the next few seconds, and removed about 12
seconds later. The next scan, 15 seconds later,
does not see the results of the previous scan
and starts from zero with the same result...

So I changed the scan interval to 10 seconds
in order to make sure that the next scan
will still see the results of the previous scan.
Here is the patch

--- network-manager-0.6.3.orig/src/nm-device-802-11-wireless.c
+++ network-manager-0.6.3/src/nm-device-802-11-wireless.c
@@ -276,16 +276,16 @@

With this patch, network-manager
recognizes my trusted network in about 10 seconds.
The first scan still returns next to nothing,
but its results are still available when nm
performs the second scan.

This also works after suspend/resume cycles.

Mhh. I missed that.
My problem were ipw2200 reconnection problems with n-m (works well with ifup).
I looked for bug reports matching my problems, and 40125 was closest.
Intermittent bugs like this are difficult to describe reliably.

The wireless fix works well here.
But it also suggests that the scanning code of network-manager is inadequate.
I don't know about other wireless chips.
Thanks.

It's the link where it says "updated NetworkManager.conf". Yes, it's an IQ test for us firefox users :) Since it is an XML file firefox renders it. Try to save it (right click and save destination) and you'll have your file. I had troubles identifying the attachment too, in the beginning so you're not alone.

IFRFlyer (nick-selby) wrote : Re: [Bug 40125] Re: Doesn't bring the network back online when resuming from suspend / hibernate

To remind everyone, I'm on an HP nc4200 with an IPW2200 card.

Okay, here's what I have done. First, I had copied that line

        <limit name="max_replies_per_connection">512</limit>
into my /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf file, and frankly there has
been no improvement. When the network manager crashes after a hibernation, I
now find with Feisty that I can no longer easily restart it. This command:

sudo /usr/sbin/NetworkManagerDispatcher restart

has no effect whatever. In fact, now, when NetworkManager stops detecting
network cards after a hibernation, I am forced to restart the computer.

I did try grepping out every single NetworkManager related job and killing
those, then rmmoding the ipw2200, then restarting everything. No soap; the
interface comes back up, but NM is unable to connect properly and indicates
connection where there is not any: "You are now connected to the wireless
network Eurospot" it avers, but it's untrue, at least, I cannot do any
network related work without a full restart.

Any advice?

IFRFlyer,
there are at least 2 problems with your last comments:
1. The bug report is about "no connection/no network cards after resume" - you said, your NM crashes
2. You can't restart /usr/sbin/NetworkManagerDispatcher restart.
    You propably mean 25NetworkManager and 26NetworkManagerDispatcher in /etc/dbus-1/event.d/, where you want to restart the first one.

For 1) Please file a new bug report. Please consult and post the log as suggested in comment #7 and the output of running processes (with ps ax) and
ifconfig. Are your interfaces configured after resume? Are NetworkManager, nm-applet, dbus, dhclient running after resume?

Sorry, I meant that it loses its ability to detect network interface after

After looking at the last attached nm.log, I would ask if:
Could it be, that in IFRFlyer case, nm-applet and not NM is irritated? As far the log says, the first DHCP request after resuming fails, then a 2nd is attempted and successful!
I would say there should be network connectivity and only nm-applet is wrong saying 'No network inferface detected'. This would match the dbus problem with max_replies_per_connection, where nm-applet doesn't get a list of network interfaces after resuming.

IFRFlyer - could you please re-check your NetworkManager.conf with the one attached to this report? Please try once more
- run NetworkManager --no-daemon 2>&1 | tee nm.log
- suspend / wait a litte / resume

I had some suspend / resume problems for some time now and digged a little bit into the infrastructure of suspending. The finding was, that some time ago I installed some additional power-management stuff, which is not as good tested as the default ubuntu setup. Since I reverted back some days ago, I have absolutely reliable NM after suspend.

Hint:
Please check, if you have powersave or kpowersave (both from universe) installed. If so, replace it by powernowd and apmd as dependencies of ubuntu-desktop.

Please be explicit about what you tried, how you tested and what the result was, so that we can confirm the validity of the test and hopefully fix this issue for everyone.

=============================================================================================

My machine is a Dell Latitude C610 with both a built-in Dell TrueMobile 1150 Series MiniPCI wireless card using the <orinoco_cs> driver and a Linksys wireless card using the <ndiswrapper> driver. I am currently accessing wireless successfully with the TrueMobile card using the <orinoco_cs> driver. This built-in card does not have the suspend/resume problems the Linksys card has. I suspect it may have something to do with drivers but I am not sure.

I copied the NetworkManager.conf file to the specified directory under /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ and restarted the computer as stated.

After booting up again, I tried to get the Linksys card to connect; however, it did not connect to any network available. The TrueMobile card, however, was able to connect to the wireless network and to an open access point it found.

I am wondering if I need to disable the MiniPCI card (the TrueMobile) in BIOS so that it doesn't affect the Linksys card. I am not sure if there is some interference, but I will try to test this out again to make sure there is not.

Are there any files that I should attach in order to give you more information, or any other tests to run?

Guess what? It happened again :-(

The good news is that I think I found how to reproduce it. The sequence is something like: use Wifi (e.g. office), suspend, resume with wifi active but no network (e.g. train), suspend, resume with wifi active and known network and cable plugged-in (e.g. home) -> NM is unable to connect with the wire.

I'll try to reproduce it a couple of times, to be sure.

================================================================================================
As I stated before in my previous posts, I have both a Linksys Card using the Broadcom 4318 chipset and the <ndiswrapper> drivers, and a built-in Dell TrueMobile 1150 Series MiniPCI card using the <orinoco_cs> driver.

Up until yesterday, I thought that I had fixed the problem with the Linksys cards; I could finally get wireless access through the Linksys card and it would work perfectly. With this, I figured that I could at least have both so that I can use the TrueMobile as a backup in case the Linksys card fails.

The Linksys card no longer works as of this morning; it can find the wireless networks and all but it cannot successfully connect to them. The TrueMobile card can successfully connect to any wireless networks it can find.

This is becoming quite troublesome as I am unsure as to what causes it. I almost want to say that the problem is random but I doubt it. I think I will take Michel's advice and check to see if it involves his method of reproduction.

I ask this again (and my most sincere apologies to anyone who reads this sentence), but is there a set of commands or instructions I should run or execute to get any more information about the driver problem??? ANYTHING!?!? If I can figure out what I'm supposed to look for, I will help. Developers, I am sending this out to you to.

As in the very beginning of this post, clicking DISABLE wireless in the NM applet (right click then deselect "Enable Wireless") is effective, and the interface will come back up after suspend.

Feisty 32-bit, 2.6.20-16-generic with ipw3945 and e100 on a Sony Vaio VGN-FE41Z.

Using just the ipw3945 wireless connection on a WPA2 network.

After resume from suspend NetworkManager reported no network devices. Restarting NetworkManager didn't seem to solve it.

The solution was to use mlaverdiere's method dated 2006-07-05 to stop NetworkManager during suspend and start it during resume:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/40125/comments/43

These methods all failed to solve the issue:

1. Adding max_replies_per_connection=512 to /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf
2. Adding dbus suspend/resume scripts (with varying priorities) as per John Cooper's post
3. Disabling Wireless Networking from the nm-applet prior to suspending

Doing a suspend/resume cycle whilst running NetworkManager --no-daemon reports:

Stopping and restarting NetworkManager (as daemon or not) will start the network and connect successfully if NetworkManager was running as --nodaemon during suspend.
