I experienced the same problem upgrading from Lucid to Maverick. I prefer wicd to networkmanager, partly because it allows me to get wireless access on some networks where network-manager does not. After the upgrade to Maverick i could not access my wireless network, a quick check showed network-manager was installed and started. After disabling and purging network-manager wicd works as it used to.
I chose to use wicd instead of network-manager, i believe the upgrade should not install network-manager, especially when wicd is installed as well. It should respect my previous choices and only change to network- manager if wicd was not not supported in the upgraded environment. -- Upgrade from Karmic to Lucid installs BOTH wicd and knetworkmanager https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/559386 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
