[Bug 1416635] Re: NetworkManager crashed with signal 5 in ASSERT_VALID_PATH_COMPONENT()

 

I found a fairly jenky work around. If while NetworkManager is off or
crashed I use the hardware key combo to turn off wifi it does so. Then
NetworkManager will start up. However it will attempt to enable wifi
itself. So the next move is while it's starting up right after
NetworkManager has turned the wifi chip back on you need to utilize the
key combo again to manually disable wifi.

Then if I wait for a bit I can turn on wifi via hardware chip and it
will crash in about a minute with the following in the logs:

```

My first thought is that I might have a wireless chip that's
unsupported. However that doesn't seem to be the case given I'm running
a certified laptop. I'm still doing some investigation but now I seem to
be able to get NetworkManager to "stay up". Even if now I can't connect
to wifi.
