Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: ubuntu-desktop
I use CDMA Mobile phone to access internet outside my home. In earlier
versions (5.10, 6.06) of Ubuntu I was setting up this modem through
"Networking" menu. There was an "activate" button and after clicking on
it the system was getting connected to internet by running pppd.
In Ubuntu Edgy the "activate" button has been replaced by a "checkbox"
and the manual says that if you check the box the connection gets
activated. While this is true for "eth" connections, no connection is
established for the "Modem".
** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu)
