Hi.
I seem to have a similar problem as member Nivla regarding Network Manager app.
Been following Nivla thread. Maybe Nivla issues are somewhat related to mine.
I cannot enable the network manager app in my Linux environment on my Android 7.1.2 OnePlus One device. Without enabling, I am unable to connect wireless to wlan0 & wlan1.
Been trying to resolve this problem for 2 weeks, but cannot find a solution. Hopefully someone can help. Thanks. Jef.
Info:
- ROM: Lineageos 14.1 bacon Android 7.1.2 Marshmallow. Device: OnePlus One.
- Uname: Linux Nethunter 3.15. Kernel 3.4.112-lineageos-g23c699a armv71.
- Distro: Kali Linux Rolling V2017.1
- Architecture: Armhf
- CurrentDesktop: XFce V4.1,2
- Client: VNC Viewer V3.3.1 connect via localhost 127.0.0.1 to linux
- Network-Manager and Gnome v1-8-2-1 armhf
Wireless WIFI Use:
Have 2. Wlan0 and Wlan1.
Wlan0 owned/operated by the hotel I'm currently staying temporarily.
Connect using Windows on my XPS13 laptop.
Wlan1 is my external wifi dongle TP-Link-TL-WN722N, use specifically for Linux.
Use otg cable to connect Phone Device to wifi dongle.
I can successfully run all aircrack-ng commands putting wlan1 in monitor mode.
BTW: TL-WN722N dongle works fine when I access Linux with my Xps13 Laptop.
Prior to starting network manager, I initiate Ifconfig & airmon-ng cmds to start Wlan0 & Wlan1.
After this, I can ping google.com network.
Network Manager Applet responses:
Installed network-manager successfully. NM-applet appears on the top-right panel. Two monitors joined displaying “x” in window.
Right click the nm-applet shows the following:
- enable networking option (greyed out),
- enable notification open,
- connection info option(greyed out),
- edit connection open,
(see attached Screen-Shot).
Tic edit connections get not response.
Left click nm-applet, shows the following message:
“network manager is not running” grayed out (see attached Screen-Shot).
Go to application, settings, network connection and double click network connections, get no response.
Click on the front nm-applet, display message “network manager is disable”.
My Question is: How can I enable network manager in kali linux to configure my network connections? I cannot see any available wireless networks.
Once enabled, I should be able to “Ticked On” networking option in the applet, then connect wireless to the internet. From what I've read, most Networking problems are related to missing or faulty drivers. Is this true?
Tried:
- stop, restarting network manager service
- uninstalling/reinstalling network-manager & Gnome.
- Setting Managed=true In r.conf
- Killed all using rfkill command.
- Nm-connection-editor - 7214 Warning couldn't construct the client instance.
Could not connect, no such file or directory. Failed to initialize the UI.
- /etc/init.d/network-manager restart

Some commands:
lspci
pcilib: Cannot open /proc/bus/pci
lspci: Cannot find any working access method
I have Pcutils installed. I may not have any bus/pci installed.
Is there substitute command or file you can recommend to display?
AIRMON-NG
root@kali:~# airmon-ng start wlan1
Found 1 processes that could cause trouble.
If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to run 'airmon-ng check kill'
