[Bug 395896] Re: network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection
about what Craig said at first Finally, pressing the apply button doesn't set the new IP address immediately; it doesn't change until I turn the enable networking check box off and then on. The latter workaround makes it impossible to perform the edit remotely, as turning off the check box does immediately turn off the network. I am 99% sure it is the same issue I've just confirmed here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/297745 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395896 Title: network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/395896/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The original request of saving what's currently entered in the address fields has been fixed some time ago already, and so is being able to switch from field to field within the address entry using Tab; so closing as Fix Released. ** No longer affects: network-manager ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395896 Title: network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/395896/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project. - Manually editing IP settings is not a task we expect an average user to be performing. For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut. Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as Invalid only in the papercuts project. ** Changed in: hundredpapercuts Status: New = Invalid -- network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395896 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

I find the same thing in Xubuntu 9.10 (current). Instead of pressing Tab you have to press Enter each time a value is entered. Also, Network Manager does not report when the connection becomes broken and a system restart is needed. (see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/464559 for an example) Also, NM can't stay connected to hidden (no SSID in the beacon broadcast) networks. NM can connect to a hidden network initially, but has trouble reconnecting, especially if there are two hidden networks (SSID=). The hidden networks can be on different channels, but since NM has no channel selector, this isn't an option. NM does have a BSSID field that can be used, but doesn't appear to be, although it could be because some cards (i.e. Linksys) ignore the BSSID request. -- network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395896 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

I would just like to add that having the tab key switch from ip address to subnet mask to gateway would be nice. When manually configuring an ip, I have to click on the ip address, hit enter, click on the next field, etc. for each field. -- network-manager loses edits in network address form, apply button doesn't change connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/395896 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
