We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
systemd, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.
........
Changes:
systemd (220-3) unstable; urgency=medium
.
   * Fix ProtectSystem=yes to actually protect /usr, not /home.
     (Closes: #787343)
   * sd-device: fix device_get_properties_strv(). Fixes environment for
     processes spawned by udev, in particular "allow-hoplug" ifupdown
     interfaces via ifup@.service. (Closes: #787263)
   * Ignore test failures on mipsel; the three failures are not reproducible on
     the porter box (different kernel?). (See #787258)
   * Add ifupdown-hotplug autopkgtest. Reproduces #787263.
   * udev: Bring back persistant storage symlinks for bcache. Thanks David
     Mohr! (Closes: #787367)
   * sd-device: Fix invalid property strv pointers. This unbreaks the
     environment of udev callouts.

udev and systemd DU-ed to most recent version 220-4, but still no wireless-internet connection. Is there still any hope for ceni-users (like me) by waiting a few more days? or will systemd-networkd, connman, or network-manager be the future alternatives?

Greetings,

@Jörg: Good question, for LXDE and LXQt i think i will prefer connman and cmst as frontend

[Jörg]

@melmarker: and your advice for KDE?

On a dist-upgraded 64-bit wired  KDE install ceni works just fine, no idea why

On my system ceni gives ... Hardware devices: no values!

[melmarker]

@Jörg: hmm - i will have a look at ceni, maybe the upstream changes solve it.

After two weeks of "waiting & thinking" the only way of setting up a wireless internet connection is:

Code Select Expand


[08:11:36] root@thinkpad-s540:/home/jorg# ifup wlan0
wpa_supplicant: wpa_action is managing ifup/ifdown state of wlan0
wpa_supplicant: execute `ifdown --force wlan0' to stop wpa_action
run-parts: /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wpasupplicant exited with return code 1
Failed to bring up wlan0.
[08:11:46] root@thinkpad-s540:/home/jorg#


Nevertheless the message "Failed to bring up wlan0", the wireless internet connection works until shutdown of the computer. After every new start I have to type in the root-console "ifup wlan0" again. Any explanation and help is welcome - thank you in advance.

Greetings,
Jörg

Hi Jörg,

have you switched to the new "systemd-networkd"? Perhaps this helps to get around your problem with the WLAN.
