I agree. As my report implies, I was physically connected to my LAN, which has a router connected to the Internet. When I manually ran the update manager, it did connect with no trouble. I suppose the live CD had not made a logical connection yet when the update manager was run automatically at login of the administrative user. When the update manager runs, if no logical connection has been made yet, the connection should be made while the update manager is held suspended until connection is available, instead of giving an error that is confusing like this. -- [Hardy 8.04 Alpha-3 Live-CD] Update-manager icon reports "unable to communicate with backend". https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I get this as well, but even when I'm not connected to any network. Surely it would be better to only show this icon if the computer is connected to a network and is unable to connect with backend? -- [Hardy 8.04 Alpha-3 Live-CD] Update-manager icon reports "unable to communicate with backend". https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
