[SOLVED]Problems with the last networkmanager upgrade

Since the last networkmanager upgrade my host name gets changed automatically. This, of course, causes the whole gnome desktop to malfunction. Did anyone else experience this? Is it a bug or what?
P.S.
Forgot to mention that this problem doesn't occure after downgrading of the packages (nm and nm-applet). There are two possibilities:
* Something is wrong with the new version
* Something has changed in the configuration for the new version and it by default automatically changes the host name.

changing /etc/hosts is intended by upstream. there are three solutions to this "issue".
1) nuke the feature out like i did for changing hostname, which sucks and i don' t want to do it anymore
2) write a correct /etc/hosts
3) write a plugin for archlinux. right now networkmanager is using a generic plugin called keyfile.
best solution is to implement 3 and push it upstream, the ugliest is 1. patches welcomed
P.S a correct /etc/hosts conform nm code
/* We need the following in /etc/hosts:
* 1) current hostname mapped to current IPv4 addresses if IPv4 is active
* 2) current hostname mapped to current IPv6 addresses if IPv6 is active
* 3) 'localhost' mapped to 127.0.0.1
* 4) 'localhost6' mapped to ::1
* If all these things exist we don't need to bother updating the file.
it seems that the standard is to map hostname to your active ipv4 and therefor is your problem. you need to start mysql after nm is connected.
P.S patch here. http://pkgbuild.com/~ioni/disable_etc_hosts.patch try it yourself. But i still think is wrong

  • Had a problem with the last firmware upgrade and now have a delayed startup

    I made the mistake of doing the firmware flash while the MBP was docked. I don't thing it was successful although it shows the right number. My startup time is about two minutes which is unusual as it used to be super fast (using an SSD). Any ideas?

  • Problems with the latest firmware upgrade

    I found a problem with the 01-10-2006 firmware upgrade. Now that it is inside my ipod certain videos don't play properly anymore. Actually the video starts, it plays normally for a while and then it goes still for a few seconds and then, when it plays again, the audio is gone.
    It always happens in the same point with the same video. In particular, just in case someone wants to try, it happens in the latest nasa video podcast.
    I don't know what to do!
    I'll try to step back to the 1.0 version...

    I'm having this problem as well. Sinse I updated the firmware all of my movies get stuck about every 10 seconds then if I wait a few seconds they start up again but with no audio. I'm quite certain that this is a problem with the firmware sinse the videos play fine on quicktime, they used to play fine in my ipod before I updated it, and I can get it to play the parts it gets stuck at if I rewind it but it happens very frequently and each time takes a while to reload. If anyone has found a way to solve this problem please let us know.

  • URGENT!!! Problems with the last version  14.2.1

    Hello, I have a problem with the latest update of PS CC two iMac in the company where I work, is that updated to the latest version and have recurring problems, for example, when using the Transform an object tool, the object changes, shown with noise or change the opacity and you can not edit, or also adding some other effect is the result: a distorted image. I think that's the latest update of PS because I have no such problems, because even I do not upgrade to version 14.2.1. Please I need your help, as our work at the agency is compromised with the delays that this causes us. Greetings and thanks! I'll be waiting for an answer.

    Lo siento mucho, aquí va el problema en español:
    Buenos días, tengo un problema con la última actualización de PS CC en dos iMac en la empresa donde trabajo, resulta que actualizaron a la última versión y tienen problemas recurrentes, por ejemplo: al utilizar la herramienta Transformar en un objeto, éste objeto cambia, se muestra con ruido o cambia la opacidad y no es posible editarlo, o también agregando algún efecto el resultado es otro: una imagen distorsionada. Creo que es por la última actualización de PS ya que yo no tengo esos problemas, porque aún no actualizo a la versión 14.2.1. Por favor necesito su ayuda, ya que nuestro trabajo en la agencia se ve comprometido con los retrasos que esto nos ocasiona. Saludos y gracias! Estaré a la espera de una respuesta.
    Muchas gracias!!!

  • HT6195 Big problem with the last security update, how can I solve the problem?

    Yesterday I installed the last system update in my secondary computer, a Macbook Pro (OS 10.8.5, if I remember well), from that moment is impossible to restart it. How can I solve the problem?
    Today Apple is worst than Windows, but is considerably more expensive! I am seriously considering to change to Windows, in less than 3 months I had serious problems with two Apple computers and I changed 4 computers (always Apple) in less than 6 years.

    tmjavier,
    feel free to use whichever operating system best suits your needs. Since this is a user-to-user forum, whether you use OS X or Windows will affect no one’s bottom line here.
    Regarding your MacBook Pro, you can try booting it into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the  OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Is it able to reach the login screen now?

  • Problem with the Clipboard after upgrade

    We had been using Intermedia, along with the Clipboard and WebAgent in Oracle 8.1.5. A few days ago we upgraded to 8.1.6 (I performed the Intermedia upgrade as well). Oracle is Installed on a Solaris 7 server.
    We installed everything into a new Oracle Home.
    The code we had written using the Intermedia procedures and packages still works but now the CLIPBOARD is not working. The ClipBoard and Web Agent are installed on an NT server running IIS
    Using the ClipBoard, when we we try to connect to the database we get the folliwng error:
    ORA-12564: TNS connect refused
    In the LISTENER.log on the server we see the following corresponding errors:
    26-APR-2000 09:18:16 * (CONNECT_DATA=(SID=cadv)(ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/l1oradv/product/8.1.5)(SERVER=DEDICATED)(CID=(PROGRAM=C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv\inetinfo.exe)(HOST=L10008016)(USER=IUSR_L10008016))) * (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=172.27.
    125.68)(PORT=1206)) * establish * cadv * 1201
    TNS-01201: Listener cannot find executable /u01/app/l1oradv/product/8.1.5/bin/oracle for SID cadv
    The /u01 directory is the OLD Oracle home. I cannot figure out where the Clipboard is pulling that name from. I went through the tnsnames.ora on the client and the server and both point to the new Oracle home. I also went through the LISTENER.ora and there are no reference to the old Oracle home. On the NT Server where the Clipboard and Web Agent are installed I went through the wsc.cfg and everything looks good. There is no reference to the old Oracle home. I also verified the old listener is not running on the Solaris server.
    Where could this be buried? Everything else (DBA Studio, SQL*Plus worksheet) is working from the same NT Server running the Clipboard. I cannot find where the old Oracle home reference is coming from.
    Marilee

    Hi,
    The Clipboard uses the Web Agent to connect
    to the database, so it should be possible to
    track this down just using the web agent.
    The web agent itself is just a regular OCI
    client application - it doesn't do anything
    special when it comes to connecting to the
    database, it just uses the SERVICE attribute
    in the WSC.CFG file as a SQL*Net TNS service
    name in TNSNAMES.ORA. The first thing to try
    is to test the database agent being used by
    the clipboard from a browser. Eg:
    [URL=http://host/intermedia/<dbagent-NAME>/~test]http://host/intermedia/<dbagent-NAME>/~test[/URL] That should result in the same error message
    being logged by the listener and should also
    result in an error message being displayed
    on the browser window.
    To verify that the Web Agent is reading the
    correct TNSNAMES.ORA, you can create another
    database agent and include the entire
    connection string as the service name instead
    of using a TNS service name. This is probably
    best done by editing WSC.CFG, creating a new
    database agent by copying the existing one
    and replacing the service name with the
    connect string from TNSNAMES.ORA, making sure
    the string is all on 1 line. For example:
    [database_agent.sample-test]
    service = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mypc)(PORT = 1521)) )(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = orcl) ) )
    database_user = scott
    database_password = tiger
    authorized_request_class = retrieve
    authorized_sql_statements = procedures
    authorized_sql_procedures = *You can also verify the connection string
    using SQL/Plus. For example:
    sqlplus scott/tiger@"(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = mypc)(PORT = 1521)) )(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = orcl) ) )"If the connection string works but the TNS
    service name doesn't, then I suspect that the
    web agent is looking at an old TNSNAMES.ORA
    file. If so, its because an old file exists
    in the PATH being used by IIS. Another
    possible, though much less likely problem is
    that there's an old OCI DLL and/or Oracle
    home in the PATH used by IIS.

  • WIFI problem with the last time machine update

    When Apple released the last update for time machine via "software update" I did that as I usually do on my macbook intel core 2 duo 1,83. It was like two months ago and I remeber there were some other updates together. After rebooting the machine I had no chance to connecting to my wifi anymore (using a NETGEAR router) and I went crazy trying to find the problem. In a forum somewhere on the web I found someone else having the same problem that was related to that "time Machine" update. The only solution (extreme) was to reinstalling the OS and, doing all the updates except for time machine
    Yesterday Apple released the new 10.5.3 and without thinking about I did the update today ... and now it doesn't connect to wifi again.
    Anyone experienced the same problem?
    Anyone has a solution to that or just how to remove this time machine stuff?
    Thanks ---

    The project is 5 minutes long, but I cannot export any other project, even the short ones (few seconds).
    Whereas, if I try to export a project that I already exported in the past, that one I can export.
    The source is only pictures. Thousands of pictures for a stopmotion project. But as I said, it doesn't work neither with other minor projects
    I don't really know what to do.
    Does anybody know if I can downgrade the software?
    Thanks for suppot
    Cheers

  • Is the most recent version compatible with Norton 360 gold, especially Identity Safe? I had problems with the last new version of Firefox. Sian MacKian

    That is it really. I had to get help from Norton last time.

    Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
    I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
    For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

    Hi,
    When I install the last version it doesnt run.My tab is dell streak 7 with android 2.2.2.the screen is black and the icon is android,not fox.Please help me.Thanks

    It looks as if Android 2.2 support was dropped as of mobile Firefox 31.0 though there could be a ESR based on 31.0 that will support it.
    Also I think ARMv6 was dropped for 31.0? though your tablet has a NVIDIA Tegra 2 250 T20 which is ARMv7.
