I too have this problem. I've recently upgraded both a laptop (using ath5k) and a PC (wired network) from 8.04. The PC works fine.
On the laptop; I had reason to go into the new network manager, which looks great but when I try to enter DNS servers for wlan0 and save, I am shown an error dialog: Updating connection failed: nm-ifupdown-connection.c.82 - connection update not supported (read-only).. It doesn't ask me to authenticate as root, which I presume I must be to do this. resolv.conf seems to be cleared on boot, so when I have put nameserver entries into resolv.conf myself so that I can google the problem, I must do so again every boot. I can't find the equivalent network manager configs to edit. In 8.04 on this laptop I had madwifi ath drivers installed and I had to do /etc/init.d/networking restart every boot before wireless network would come up; so expected a problem or two.. On the laptop, resolvconf was found to be *not* installed after the upgrade. (I've installed it now.) I'm a programmer and familiar with Linux if I can help further. Congrats on an overall great release of a great distro :) Regards, Matt -- resolv.conf, nameservers not properly updated (Was: Not able to connect to network) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269340 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
