I'm having a problem with NM itself, not drivers or networking. eth0 comes up manually (ifup eth0). wlan0 comes up fine manually, or with wifi-radar.
Hardy heron 8.04 from dvd iso, apt-get update 31 Mar. Rm'd all .gconf* .gnome* subdirs; removed, installed network-manager, rebooted, same result. dbus seems happy. NetworkManager (via nm-applet I guess, in the panel) behaves most strangely. Upon open (click applet in gnome panel) the "Connection properties eth0" dialog appears. Note device name in title. "eth0" appears in the devicename window, yet it is not in the pulldown; click CONFIGURE gets "The interface does not exist" dialog box. Same thing for wlan0. The only interface in the pulldown is lo. My /etc/network/interfaces is: [CODE] auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface wlan0 inet dhcp iface eth0 inet dhcp [/CODE] /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README has wrong? info? says if "interfaces ARE in /etc/network/interfaces NM will NOT manage it. Tried all ways, no change. System -> Administration -> Network shows roaming wifi, wired, pointtopoint. There's checkboxes to the left of each; wired is checked. If I uncheck it, it comes back hecked few seconds later! Can't check roaming wifi. Never paid attention to the checkbox before, no idea what it means or is for. __________________ -- [Hardy] Network can not be configured through the NetworkManager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178703 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
