I take that back. Setting managed=true breaks the networking. Even though I get the proper icon and all the network connection information appears to be correct (both as displayed by ifconfig and through the NM u/i), I cannot ping or connect to any service outside my LAN. Gateway and DNS services, IPv4 address and netmask all *look* right, but nothing gets outside the LAN. Setting it back to managed=false fixes this but of course volcano-izes the icon.
I'll take functional networking over cosmetics. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/751939 Title: Wired-only machine has empty volcano icon Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager I just upgraded my maverick desktop machine to natty. This machine only has a wired connection, no wireless. I'm used to seeing the up/down arrows for the nm icon in the menu bar, but now all I see is the empty volcano (or fan, or pie slice :) icon. When I select Edit Connections, I do see just the Auto Ethernet wired connection I expect.
