Public bug reported: As I right click the icon of NetworkManagement plasma and try to manage connections on my computer for my DSL connection, I find that the DSL tab is unabled to switch to. Thus, I use pppoeconf to set up my DSL connection and work well. (Please see the attachment for understanding the situation better.)
However, the configuration I set up with pppoeconf still cannot be managed by NetworkManagemet plasma. I was wondering if there is something wrong with knetwrokmanager? If not, can the develop team merge the feature of pppoeconf into knetworkmanager? Thanks a lot. ****** Information of ifconfig: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:21:85:11:45:28 inet6 addr: fe80::221:85ff:fe11:4528/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:59793 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:33954 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:85882213 (85.8 MB) TX bytes:3359806 (3.3 MB) Interrupt:251 Base address:0xa000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:280 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:280 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:19768 (19.7 KB) TX bytes:19768 (19.7 KB) ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol inet addr:61.227.140.183 P-t-P:220.129.160.254 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1 RX packets:26611 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:16098 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:3 RX bytes:36621239 (36.6 MB) TX bytes:1450804 (1.4 MB) Information of plog: (I use poff -a then pon dsl-provider before plog) Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: Using interface ppp1 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: Connect: ppp1 <--> eth0 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: PAP authentication succeeded Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: peer from calling number 00:90:1A:41:F2:FD authorized Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: not replacing existing default route through ppp0 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: local IP address 61.227.137.218 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: remote IP address 220.129.160.254 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: primary DNS address 168.95.192.1 Apr 26 14:11:19 desktop pppd[5246]: secondary DNS address 168.95.1.1 ** Affects: knetworkmanager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: dsl knetworkmanager pppoe -- the DSLl tab of knetworkmanager is uabled to use while pppoeconf can work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/367161 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
