Hello, I've a similar problem when running Kubuntu 8.04 from the CD-ROM. Choosing Manual Configuration from the context menu (opened by right clicking) of the KNetworkManager status bar icon does not work at all. It does not open any network configuration dialog at all. One have to configure a DHCP server of configure network manually from the command line, which is possible, but rather frustrating. It should be some simple bug in KNetworkManager related to the fact, that it runs from the CD, not from an installed system. Note, that the eth0 adapter exists, but no eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces, just the loopback adapter is there. There are no configuration panes under System Settings / Network Settings for the eth0 adapter, which is rather interesting, since eth0 exists and can be used manually.
It works fine with the regular Gnome desktop, why it is so hard with KDE? -- Network configuration trouble using live cd https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/111829 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
