I updated to 8.10 Today (14/11/2008) and tried to enable my wireless again. I have a broadcom card with the latest proprietary driver installed. (nice bit of desktop software the new 'restricted drivers' management tool)
several things I noticed 1. Network Configuration is now in System->Preferances not System->Administration. 2. Network Configuration does not ask for Authentication. 3. It doesn't work!!! I ran nm-connection-editor from the command line to capture the output. I clicked on the tab for wireless, then selected my profile "ifupdown(eth1)" then selected 'edit'. When the window popped up, I supplied a password for WPA (it never saved it correctly with Hardy before) clicked OK. And to finish it all off I get a dialog displaying this. "Updating connection failed: nm-ifupdown-connection.c.82 - connection update not supported (read-only)" Here is the output at the command line.

It looks like a permissions problem, but running it 'sudo' doesn't make a difference.
