Hi,

The IP of your machine maybe should not be 192.168.0.1, as it could be
conflicting with the one of your router. Can you type "sudo dhclient
em1" and give back the result? And if it connects your machine fine, can
you then type in "sudo route" and provide the result?

Besides that, what kind of machine is it? Tower or laptop? If a laptop,
do you use a workstation with it?

I don't think the language is relevant, but as I also use French in my
computers, I'll try to upgrade one to Wily and see if I also get
difficulties with the connection.

Title:
  No valid active connection found and Unmanaged device found

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I am using Ubuntu Trusty 64bits, with an Openbox environment, a tint2
  panel and nm-applet started with the session.

  $ apt-cache policy network-manager
  network-manager:
    Installé : 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7
    Candidat : 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7
   Table de version :
   *** 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu7 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
  $ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
  network-manager-gnome:
    Installé : 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.1
    Candidat : 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.1
   Table de version :
   *** 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4.1 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       0.9.8.8-0ubuntu4 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
  $ 

  Here is my hardware configuration:
  Ethernet:
  00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82577LM Gigabit Network Connection (rev 06)

  Wifi:
  Centrino Advanced-N 6200 driver=iwlwifi driverversion=3.13.0-29-generic firmware=9.221.4.1 

  Here is the problem: when I start the X session with wireless and
  ethernet both enabled, the nm-applet does show in the panel; once I
  deactivate the wifi in nm-applet, it just disappears;

  From there it does not reconnect to Ethernet (though the cable is
  plugged in). If I reboot completely, once logged into X (I use
  lightdm), the applet still doesn't show, however when I click on the
  panel where it is supposed to be, I see the menus : left-click, right-
  click : it is a ghost applet! Left click all entries except configure
  vpn are grayed, right click lets me access to all entries, and
  information about the connections states "Erreur lors de l'affichage
  des informations de connexion :

  Aucune connexion valide active trouvée !" (Error while displaying informations about connection : no valid active connection found!") and in /var/log/syslog:
  Jun  7 21:56:33 gazelle NetworkManager[1612]: <info> Unmanaged Device found; state CONNECTED forced. (see http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191889)

  (but #191889 is not the same as the one I am hitting here).

  If I use dhclient eth0 as root it will (re)connect same if I reboot
  completely.

  Thanks for fixing network-manager and it's applet!

  If you need me to bring more log files, I'll be around.

  Regards,
  Mélodie
