[Bug 386900] Re: Auto eth0 in notifications is confusing
Changes are upstream, the actual notification and name of the connection is in fact Wired connection 1 (and is translatable, the translation for this has been fixed up in Precise).

Ideally you want to make sure what is written in a tooltip or notification matches the options available in the nm-applet dropdown where you choose the connection. Yes, agree 100%. Who cares what the notification says if there's nothing matching it in the nm-applet? Let's just change the nm-applet words. As comment #16 says, we can all manually change the name of the connection in network manager. All we're asking here is that the default name given to a connection (the same one we can edit ourselves) is not Auto eth0. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386900 Title: Auto eth0 in notifications is confusing -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Indeed we don't want to apply this in Ubuntu without it being applied upstream first, otherwise we'd have a permanent delta on user-visible strings. This would keep breaking all translations. Also, please don't drop the interface name from the string, as it's not uncommon to have more than one.

[Bug 386900] Re: Auto eth0 in notifications is confusing
Yup, I'll be looking at this one; let's work to get this *really* fixed in Natty. That said, I see a number of issues. While I agree it seems confusing to designate the connection as Auto eth0, it really does have a reason to exist: it's an automatically added connection when NM is installed, that uses the eth0 interface to connect. This could easily be changed to something different, like Default Wired Connection. Looking at the latest patch applied I'm a little against making changed to tooltips (or other places for that matter) to not display the connection that is being used. In some cases, a user could have different wired connections (such as how to deal with being at work or being at home), and thus removing the connection's name would cause confusion.

I really don't see what is wrong with correctly labelling the hardware interface with eth0 and eth1, which would be educational for new users and useful for others. But on my up-to-date Ubuntu 9.10 system, something keeps swapping the hardware names eth0 and eth1, and I can have Auto eth1 connected to Wired Network (eth0) and I now have a Wired Network (eth1rename) which tries to connect to eth1_rename as well. I suspect it is udev and the kernel harware detection order mucking the names up which just confuses Network Manager and this user. -- Auto eth0 in notifications is confusing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/386900 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
