In this case gnome-nettool is correct and "Network Connections" aka nm-
connection-editor is not. Therefore I'm moving this over to network-
manager-gnome and will look first for a duplicate. Thanks for your
help.

Title:
network adapter not showing in network manager applet
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Under the network applets on the toolbar, I see no entry for a wired
connection and when I click on connection information, it states "no
valid connection found". I can use the "network-tools" application and
see I have eth0 and can view my connection information, but again when
i go to the configure button, nothing shows up under the wired
section. I tried to create an entry and reboot but it still remains
and states that it has never been used.
I don't have any apparent issues relating to this as far as
connectivity is concerned (I'm entering this bug on the same machine)
but I wonder if it is effecting other operations such as when I use
"sudo update-manager" I sometimes get a failed error message, but not
always. Also, prior to me reformatting and reinstalling again last
night on this machine which is baremetal: no other operating systems
installed, I was running on 12.04 LTS and thought that was the reason
for the issue, but I'm currently on a new install of 11.04 and the
problem remains.
I filed a follow up bug report under question #136802 which I noticed
afterwards that it was a bit dated going back to 2010. I then had some
additional issues which made me decide to reinstall from scratch and
decided to file a new bug report.
let me know if there is any additional information I can provide but
my lspci output from this machine and another machine (which shows the
network just fine) is included in the incident/question above.
Thanks,
Kevin
