Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-nettool
running ubuntustudio lucid/i386, up to date as at 2010-04-20.
In the desktop I go to System-
The gnome-nettool opens. It shows 'General', 'DNS' and 'Hosts' info, all correct.
There is no Connections tab. The help pages are almost entirely devoted to this tab,
so there must be something seriously wrong here.
The interfaces in the machine are shown below.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we can't fix it because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http:// www.chiark. greenend. org.uk/ ~sgtatham/ bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem. We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http:// wiki.ubuntu. com/DebuggingPr ocedures.
At a minimum, we need:
1. the specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem,
2. the behavior you expected, and
3. the behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Thanks!
When reporting bugs in the future please use apport, either via the appropriate application's "Help -> Report a Problem" menu or using 'ubuntu-bug' and the name of the package affected. You can learn more about this functionality at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/ReportingBu gs.
