Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-gnome

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 8.10
Release:        8.10

$ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
network-manager-gnome:
  Installed: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1

Changes applied to the PPP tab (in Mobile Broadband) in the
NetworkManager are ignored. I expected the changed parameters to be set
and saved. Instead the changes were ignored. By clicking OK in the
NetworkManager, a lot of entries without values are send to gconf.

How to reproduce: Open the NetworkManager, click on tab "Mobile
Broadband", click on button "Edit" (a connection must already exists),
click on tab "Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)", change something like
"Allow TCP header compression" and click on OK. Click on "Edit" again
and see the old, unchanged settings.

With gconf-editor (in /system/networking/connections/NUMBER/ppp) one can
set the values manually and the next time the tab is opened, the
NetworkManager will show the current settings. So settings are read, at
least.
