Can't create wireless network when no wireless networks are found

[Alexander Butenko]

Binary package hint: network-manager

At office i has no wireless access point. Only cable ethernet. When i'm clicking on Network-Manager icon there is no point to create wireless network. I see only 'Manual Configuration option'. Must be a bug.

Does your office computer have a wireless card? I get the same result on my desktop, but that's to be expected. Could you attach the output of 'lspci -vv'? Thanks.

this is a bug in network-manager-applet and is most likely a deficiency of the patch we use to add that menu entry.

... putting in my TODO.

I don't know how network-manager behaved in 09-2007, but now when you right-click on the applet and select "edit connection" you are able to add wireless connections, too; so I am wondering if this is now how it should be? Thanks.

We haven't heard back from you in a while. Could you please provide the requested information? Thanks!
