Connman issue on Lubuntu Next 18.04: wifi works (after writing "sudo apt-get install bcmwl-kernel-source" and removing Connman). After reinstalling Connman, the conexion is lost again. So, the problem must be related to Connman, maybe with the Connman tethering functionality.

Erm - only two remarks - the problem isn't connman, the problem sit in front of the screen.
* Right now there are two daemons for network handling activated (network-manager and connman). Both managers come with a ui - nm-applet and cmst. So purging connman might be a good idea - or just drop network-manager and nm-applet.
* The real problem is that the connection is created and configured for n-m. if connman is reinstalled afterwards it will mostly win and take over the network handling. But Wifi isn't configured for connman - so i hardly see any bug in connman in this bug - i would call it expected behaviour.

Thanks for the quick response. But may I ask you what do you mean by "the
problem sit in front of the screen"?

Thanks for the quick response. But may I ask you what do you mean by "the problem sit in front of the screen"?

[JyotiGomes (jyotigomes)]

I do not know English very well and if I am not correctly understanding the meaning of the first sentence of the answer, I am sorry. I would like to make it clear that it was not me who installed two Network Managers in the image of Lubuntu Next, both came already installed in the iso. And the least I hope is not to be offended for trying to make an improvement contribution. If it was a joke, it was no fun and I do not agree with such kind of jokes. All the best!

[Alf Gaida (agaida)]

Jyoti - you are sitting in front of the screen :P - but your report is valid, only about the wrong package.

There is a bug in the l-next images - two daemons for handling network connections - so you should purge the one you don't like. L-next is still work in progress. And if i understood it right the combination network-manager with nm-applet is the solution that will last - so apt purge connman will solve your networking problem. Or vice versa - but in case you go with connman you will have to set up WiFi with connman again.

[JyotiGomes (jyotigomes)]

Yes, I understood that you were saying that the problem was me, I just hypothesized that I was not fully understanding the meaning of what you said (about the problem being sitting in front of the screen) in a purely rhetorical way. I did this just to not to be forced to say that you should correct these your less good behaviors. You are certainly a good person and can make a lot of good contributions to the world of live software and the society in general, so do not spoil that your good side and the good things that you can do with these sarcastically offensive tirades that may give the idea of bad education (and not only this). You have a good side, follow and develop your good side. Cheers

I actually can't confirm this with Cosmic.
