Network-manager is fine for those of you who have DSL or CABLE. However, there are quite a number of us who do not have and, will not have for a long, long time. As we still need to configure modems to automatically connect to our ISP when accessing the I-net, we need the capability only provided b

It's actually quite different than installing a new kernel. When a new kernel is installed you can run the existing one just fine until you reboot. When you change the hostname all kinds of things start "breaking". -- Network menu item missing in Intrepid Alpha 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2

I don't think this bug is invalid. I just tried to change the host name of this virtual machine. So the first thing I did was look for Network in the System > Administration. That lead me to almost create a new bug report because it is a regression that you cannot "administer" the network settings

Yeah, I've been looking into this more over the last couple days. I think fixing bugs in Network Manager is more productive. Reasons being: 1) it works in most cases. The case I was having problems with was static IPs but I believe that is getting fixed in the next upload. 2) feature parity betwe
