Hi,
Network manager replaced this feature in 8.10 however as I have no modem to test with I have been unable to update the documentation. I would be glad to incorporate any suggestions you have. |

OK, I got hold of a external Hayes compatible serial modem and gave it a bash with network-manager-gnome. These revised steps worked for me so I've pushed them as a patch in the Jaunty branch. |

Re-opening as Confirmed. As I said, I just tested it on a fresh install of 8.10. |

Need confirmation, my install of 8.10 might be different to Vanilla. |

OK, I'm now looking at my copy of Ubuntu as I type this. It is a (verified) copy of ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso which I downloaded earlier today, running in LiveCD mode, immediately after being started up. On the System->Administration menu there is only one entry that contains the word: "Network". It is called "Network Tools". It runs the command: gnome-nettool.
When I run it (gnome-nettool), it shows various sorts of information, but provides no opportunity to make any changes whatsoever.
So, that hopefully clarifies my claim that asking someone to click on System->Administration->Network is impossible.
Next, when I do "dpkg-query -W network-manager-gnome" it prints out:
"network-manager-gnome 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1" i.e. yes, network-manager-gnome *is* installed.
There are only two executable files in the network-manager-gnome package: nm-connection-editior, and nm-applet. When I run nm-connection-editor (which is also run by the menu item: System->Preferences->Network Configuration ), it has no menu bar, and 5 tabs: "Wired", "Wireless", "Mobile Broadband", "VPN" and "DSL". There is no "Connections" tab, and there is no "Point to point connection" entry on any of the tabs. And there is no "Serial Modem" choice in any of the dialog boxes reachable from any of the tabs.
When I try to run nm-applet, it crashes on startup, complaining that the NetworkManagerUserSettings is already taken.
As I said at the top, this is straight off of a fresh LiveCD version of 8.10. Please let me know if there is any further clarifications I can provide. I have re-opened the bug. |

String freeze is tomorrow, I'm more than happy to use a better solution than mine (I especially don't like the need to manually install a package). I'm also happy to ask for string freeze exception if someone has a solution.
Its a same because this package is very well integrated into Netbook Remix. |
