I'm running 12.04 and this affects me aswell. If I close the lid to my computer and leave it for a couple of hours. Ubuntu prompts for password again when loggin on again. Password is already filled in and is correct.
It doesn't happen if I just close the lid and immediatly opens the lid and logs on again though. As a work around I restart network-manager and the wifi resumes in a couple of seconds. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/538614 Title: NetworkManager prompts for reconnection (with previously entered password filled in) on resume from suspend Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager * What I expected to happen I open my netbook lid, Ubuntu resumes from standby, wireless connects immediately * What actually happened I open my netbook lid, Ubuntu resumes from standby, Network Manager applet spins for a while and is about to connect to saved network connection, then prompts me for WPA2 password but the password is already filled in, so I have to click Connect to connect. If my password is stored, why can't it just connect automatically? Why make me click Connect? * The minimal series of steps necessary to make it happen, where step 1 is "start the program" Step 1. Make computer suspend to RAM (close lid) Step 2. Make computer resume from suspend (open lid) Step 3. Wait for wireless to reconnect I'm using the latest Lucid alpha will all recommended updates installed. This just started happening in the last few days. Broadcom 4312 wireless card.
