Title: macchanger no longer works in 13.04 Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After upgrading (fresh install) Lubuntu to 13.04, macchanger will not change the mac address for wlan0 on boot (eth0 works). Adding the lines: pre-up macchanger -e eth0 pre-up macchanger -e wlan0 to /etc/network/interfaces will hang boot times waiting for the network on 13.04. 12.04 will load fine with MACs changed. macchanger changes eth0 fine, and trying wlan0 in terminal reports device or resource busy. Using this startup script in 13.04 works for eth0 but not wlan0: ifconfig wlan0 down iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor /usr/bin/macchanger -e wlan0 ifconfig wlan0 up I am filing this under lubuntu-desktop because I'm not sure if this is an issue with Lubuntu or network-manager, as I do not know how I can test this. I have tried running software update, and the issue still persists.
