Yes. I would like to confirm, seems to happen only when you make the connection available to all users. Connection usually works. Although I only noticed this bug because it wasn't working, and I wanted to look at the connection settings, and I noticed at that point my broadband wireless wasn't even any more in the list of possible network connections.
It seems The exception "insufficient privileges" occurs BEFORE one is shown the authentication dialog. This would sound like to me, a reason why authenticating at that point does not help the situation (because the damage to the program flow has already happened.) After authentication, the dialog just disappears with the error message. -- NetworkManager won't allow user to edit settings of Mobile Broadband connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/456261 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
