I just installed network-manager from https://launchpad.net/~network- manager/+archive/trunk to Karmic 64bit and I can make DSL connection via nm. Thank you for your effective fix. Well done !
Let me have a few questions / remarks: 1) I have manually commented out sections created by pppoeconf in /etc/network/interfaces in order to have only the following section effective: # -------------------------------------------- # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # -------------------------------------------- Is it all right? Is it enough? 2) There is again the problem of "insufficient privileges" when one wants to edit any already existing DSL connection with the "for all users" range of effect. Then after this alert nm applet behaves like it has crashed and restarted. -- [MASTER] pppd timeout when trying to establish a DSL connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/432205 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
