I've noticed a few things... when the user enters the details in the
"Add Network Connection" dialog, and then clicks OK, a new Connection
object is created in knetwork-manager, which I can see with d-feet (
DBUS debugger ), however it looks like knetwork-manager never sends an
ActivateConnection message to NetworkManager, as I never see a new
ActiveConnection object created for the new network.
If I compare to Karmic Beta on Ubuntu, when I click OK on the "Connect
to Hidden Wireless Network" dialog, I see both the new Connection object
in nm-applet, and a new ActiveConnection object in NetworkManager ( even
if the hidden network doesn't really exist ).
Note, with Kubuntu, if I click on "Connect to Other.." again, I can see
the new hidden network listed. If I click on it, it still fails to
trigger an activation, whereas clicking on another network that was
found during scanning will always trigger an activation attempt.
** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed
