1)
ouroumov@Edge:~/Desktop$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
2)
apt-cache policy is unable to locate the package.
3)
Upon entering a long WPA/WPA2 Personal password after clicking the network icon in the top right panel, the connection should be added to network-manager, even if typing the password takes a while.
4)
If typing the password takes longer than ~25 seconds, upon clicking the "Connect" button in the password prompt dialog: nothing happens
Steps to reproduce:
- Install Ubuntu MATE 16.04 LTS (possibly other Ubuntu flavours using nm-applet too)
- Run normal post-install full system update and reboot
- Click the network icon in the top right corner of the default panel layout
- Select from the Wi-Fi network list a network using WPA/WPA2 Personal
- Enter the password, wait 30 seconds to click 'connect'
Note:
While this issue might seem trivial (using 'System -> Preferences -> Internet and Network -> Network Connections' allows one to correctly save the password) (and copy/pasting the password from a text file quickly works too) it is a serious usability problem for many people in France.
The default home router Wi-Fi setup in France is WPA/WPA2 Personal with a random 26-character hexadecimal password. It takes a while too type in. |
