[Bug 231192] Re: [Network Settings GUI] "DNS Server" and "Search Domains" Add buttons overwrite item currently being edited
This was a common issue with treeview-like widgets. However, the DNS/search domain entries has been vastely redesigned since 8.04 and so this issue no longer applies to newer Ubuntu releases. I'm marking this a Fix Released because newer versions of Ubuntu than 8.04 don't have that bug, though I can understand and accept that it's not fixed yet in 8.04... However, I'm not sure how much we *can* fix it. I'd rather avoid making small UI changes if even for adding a signal like it's likely missing to handle this particular method of updating the fields, because 8.04 has been released for a while and this bug doesn't seem very critical to me: there's a clear workaround. I agree though that doing this may cause loss of data in some cases. As an alternative, you may want to try using a slightly more up-to-date version of NM from the NetworkManager team PPA: http://launchpad.net /~network-manager/+archive/ppa ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231192 Title: [Network Settings GUI] "DNS Server" and "Search Domains" Add buttons overwrite item currently being edited -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I am still running Ubuntu 8.04 (for 3rd party software support reasons) but it is fully up to date. I have just tested this bug and found it to still be intact. Let me detail the steps to reproduce the bug and let me know if you can reproduce it in Karmic Koala. 1) open the System->Administration->Network application 2) Select the DNS tab 3) click the Unlock button and enter the password to unlock the dialog 4) Click the "Add" button (to add a new DNS server) 5) for example let's type "8.8.8.8" HERE IS THE BUG: 6) now say we want to add a SECOND DNS (say "8.8.4.4") the obvious thing to do is click "Add" a second time If you haven't pressed "Enter", clicking "Add" will remove the 8.8.8.8 entry and replace it with "Type address".. and search domains works the same way. -- [Network Settings GUI] "DNS Server" and "Search Domains" Add buttons overwrite item currently being edited https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/231192 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?
