You have been subscribed to a public bug: While testing the 7.10 beta desktop CD on a variety of i386 and amd64 systems, we detected a problem in the behavior of the manual network configuration tool.
If in a liveCD session, one selects System->Administration->Network or NetworkManagerIcon->ManualConfiguration (they appear equivalent) and sets up a network interface as having a static IP, the interface does not activate until one closes the network tool, restarts it, unchecks the network device's checkbox and then re-checks it again. From that point on the network interface behaves normally. ** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs (desktop-bugs) Status: Triaged -- Static network settings while in livecd do not take effect without complete restart of network setting tool and re-assertion of the device checkbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/148606 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
