looks like drakx-net needs updating too

Thanks for this. It's all still WIP  and these are on my list :)

Valid 4beta1. DVD 64 with default XFCE installation.

Right click on the applet, click connect wired (ethernet) (enp5s8)

Segfault.

Whiteboard: (none) => 4beta1

Not sure if this is related, if not I'll create a new bug for it.

When clicking on the applet to open network centre the polkit agent opens asking for the root password. Clicking Cancel on the agent seems to crash it, it gets stuck there, unresponsive.

From the journal..

net_applet [3309]: running: /usr/bin/draknetcenter
/etc/X11/gdm/Xsession[3197]: (polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:3381): polkit-gnome-1-WARNING ***: Unable to get a pixpuf for GTK_STOCK_DIALOG_AUTHENTICATION (gtk-dialog-authentication) at size 48

4 seconds later, maybe unrelated..

systemd-logind[816]: Removed session c3.

I've still not made the necessary changes so I don't expect it to be fixed yet. I need to adjust initscripts to use pkexec wrappers when appropriate. Shouldn't be too hard overall.

Regarding the polkit-gnome-authentication agent, which desktop are you using? I thought we'd changed them all to use the mate-polkit version as it's generally less buggy, especially with it's cancel behaviour. I didn't check this personally tho', others did the work, so perhaps something is still missing here.

Should hopefully be fixed in git and will be part of v1.29

looks fixed

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Thanks for confirming :)

Sorry, but it is NOT fixed AT ALL in every "corner":
   If I try to disconnect my cabled connection the applet still dies.

My suggestion is that you look VERY THOROUGHLY to the code at large to fix ALL crash-problems. It seems, that reported crahes are somewhat related, but fixes are narrowly done step-by-step.


Sorry, not to be rude, but ...

Firstly putting the phrase "Sorry, not to be rude, but ..." is not an excuse to be rude. There is no reason what-so-ever for your use of capital letters (aka shouting) above and it only serves to make me, i.e. someone who gives up their free time to work on this stuff, incredibly annoyed at the inconsiderate attitudes conveyed.

Now, trying to ignore the fact I'm really annoyed, I will need more information to try and move on.

Your statement "If I try to disconnect my cabled connection the applet still dies." is not very useful by itself. Can you get the debug information or similar? Is there any debug info in your session journal or xsession-errors file?

From what you are saying it seems pretty likely that this is a totally unrelated issue to the problems reported in this particular bug. That's not to say there isn't a bug, it's just not *this* bug!! :)

Collin, point taken.

The error I report was confirmed some time ago by Claire Robinson (MrsB).

Here's the âhowtoâ.

I have installed all updates presented.

Normally the applet starts with KDE - and disappears (crashes) from the panel at the bottom of my screen when I try to (dis)connect wired ethernet.

I have disabled the applet below, and started it by a bash command instead

Pls find the output here [my comments in brackets]:

************

If I run it via bash as superuser the output is slightly different in both cases, but the app still crashes.

Hopefully you get a picture ...

Tried to  right click and click on  Active Connections (?) [Aktive grænsesnit] in danish.
Trying to (de)activate the wired connection also results in a crash.

Do you need more info ?

Thanks for the info René. From the above I can see it's definitly not related to this particular bug. It *could* be related to the gtk3 port, but if you've had it a while then this is likely coincidental.

I'll open a new bug and close this one.

Opened bug #11929 for this.
