This bug is serious under the following circumstances: - First user logs into PC, network manager starts up and connects to network - Second user uses fast-user-switcher to logon, has no icon for network manager - Some time later the first user switches back on, and logs out of their account - Now, the second user has no network manager, and the network connection is lost. They've got no way of re-connecting to the network, save manually starting nm or logging out and logging back on.
I'm hitting this situation a lot with two users using the same netbook and wireless network connection. -- nm-applet fail when another user is logged in (intrepid) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284596 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
