So, the dependency path from gnome-network-manager to udev is: |--gnome-network-manager |--networkmanager |--hal |--udev
It appears hal needs a rebuild because of the libvolume_id soname bump in the udev package. Updating udev then restarting hal and networkmanager make my internet die. I very quickly tried rebuilding hal but it failed....
checking whether to rebuild gperf header files... checking for DBUS... yes checking for GLIB... yes checking if GLib is version 2.14.0 or newer... yes checking for VOLUME_ID... configure: error: Package requirements (libvolume_id >= 0.77) were not met:
No package 'libvolume_id' found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables VOLUME_ID_CFLAGS and VOLUME_ID_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.
This is definitely a blocker. I am confused though, as volume_id is only required for hald-probe-storage and hald-probe-volume, which should not block hal from starting. Does hal start up at all and if yes, what processes are running (ps ax|grep -i hal)? As your problem seems related to networkmanager, is the interface present? Do the missing dmesg lines (about firmware and LED) show up when you simply run ifconfig wlan0 up?
