Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I'm running the Ubuntu 8.10 RC CD for i386. I have an AT&T Option GT
Ultra Express that I have working in Hardy, using the hso drivers from
Pharscape.
I started with the wireless card inserted upon boot. After booting the
CD, I right-clicked NM and saw no indication it had recognized my card.
I was hoping that the card would be automatically configured so that I
could easily start the network.
I then went into the Connections dialog, Mobile Broadband tab, and added
a connection using the defaults. I selected "AT&T (Tethering with data
acceleration)" for the Provider. Note that the average Joe would be
stymied here... After saving the new connection, I right-clicked NM and
saw no indication it had recognized my card. I was expecting that
something would show up here to allow me to connect.
I then rebooted the CD without the card installed. After getting the
desktop, I inserted the card and got an AutoRun dialog. This indicates
that the ZeroCD utility is not run. I tried the steps above, but got
the same result: no indication that the card is even recognized.
I am left booting out of the CD unable to connect to the Internet :-(
