Public bug reported: Background: AP hotspots are currently provisioned like this [1]. I don't precisely know why we need to poke the driver, but AP hotspots on krillin fails without it.
Rationale: Ubuntu System Settings needs to do the same things as aforementioned script, but via dbus [2] as phablet/current non-privileged user. What happens: If phablet runs [2], this error message [3] is produced, which I interpret to be equivalent with "you're not welcome here". What should happen instead: Ubuntu System Settings should be allowed to make the call [1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mathieu-tl/+junk/touch-hotspot/view/head:/hotspot.py [2] gdbus call --system -d fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1 -o /fi/w1/wpa_supplicant1 -m fi.w1.wpa_supplicant1.SetInterfaceFirmware / ap [3] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10489519/ ** Affects: dbus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: Background: AP hotspots are currently provisioned like this [1].
