[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574020] Re: Can't use networkmanager from lightdm
A notification comes up the greeter advertising that wireless networks are available. The greeter should at least not invite you to connect if you can't... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574020 Title: Can't use networkmanager from lightdm Status in NetworkManager: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in unity-greeter package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 16.04 desktop (unity) (clean install) from 14.04, (so not really upgrading, but you get the point) I noticed that lightdm with unity-greeter (all stock, nothing changed) can't connect to WiFi with network-manager.

I have two configured wifi connections. For each I went to the config files and they both had the "permissions=user:username:;" I removed "user:username:;" to restore "permissions=" Login out, I still had the insufficient privilege problem. But restarting solved the problem!!!

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1574020] Re: Can't use networkmanager from lightdm
I can confirm this behavior on a fresh install of 16.04 on the Dell XPS 13 developer edition. I get the same error message when trying to setup a wireless connection in lightdm. I don't whether this connected or not but the hotkeys (volume up/down, screen brightness) also don't work in lightdm. I installed kernel 4.6 because of the wireless toggle not working in 4.4. That solved the wireless toggle but did not change the issue in lightdm. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574020 Title: Can't use networkmanager from lightdm Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After upgrading to 16.04 desktop (unity) (clean install) from 14.04, (so not really upgrading, but you get the point) I noticed that lightdm with unity-greeter (all stock, nothing changed) can't connect to WiFi with network-manager.
