[Bug 67201] Re: [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade
Closing since migration issues from three years ago will never be tackled now, sorry. And the issues described by comments 10 and 11 are in NetworkManager, nothing to do with the gnome-system-tools (I guess they're fixed now anyway). ** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67201 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

I experience the same as Eric on a clean Herd-1 install. (prism2_usb card, I have installed linux-wlan-ng from the CD). The GUI presents wlan0 as a wired device, so I had to manually edit /etc/network/interfaces to get online. -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67201 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 67201] Re: [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade
FYI, when I tried a system upgrade from 6.06 LTS to 6.10, the Wireless card in a desktop box, which is recognised as such in dapper's Network Manager, changed to an 'ethernet' card in edgy's Network Manager, so connectivity was lost. I was unable to set ESSID or WAP key. I reinstalled 6.06 LTS, and re-established connectivity. On Edgy's official release, I downloaded the desktop iso and tried again. Running from the CD, in the Network Manager window, there are two NICs shown. Both icons are 'wired' devices, one is called wlan0, and the other eth0. So I'm still unable to configure the wireless interface. I wondered if it was maybe a HAL issue? -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67201 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I found the file /etc/gnome-system-tools/network/profiles.xml which contains the network profiles from dapper. This is probably the file we want to migrate from. -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67201 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Before fixing the migration we should make sure it's bugged. The location issue would be a good question for upstream, it can make sense to have locations stored by user -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67201 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I found backups under /var/cache/setup-tool-backends/backup/network I guess it will be impossible to fix migration of these data on upgrade before edgy is released. Isn't it odd that the network data is now in a user directory while I believe it is system wide configuration? -- [network-admin] network preferences gone after dapper -> edgy upgrade https://launchpad.net/bugs/67201 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
