Public bug reported: After upgrading to 11.11, wicd does not use the DNS domain IP address set in the network properties.
If the IP is saved as "nameserver nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn" in /etc/resolv.conf, DNS lookup works until a reboot. Wicd replaces "network Manager" which does not work in Ideapad S12 (intel atom). ljohnson@KISE-007:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10 ...:~$ apt-cache policy wicd wicd: Installed: 1.7.0+ds1-6 Candidate: 1.7.0+ds1-6 Version table: *** 1.7.0+ds1-6 0 500 http://mirror.math.ucdavis.edu/ubuntu/ oneiric/universe i386 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ...:~$ ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 Package: wicd 1.7.0+ds1-6 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic 3.0.4 Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic i686 NonfreeKernelModules: wl ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu3 Architecture: i386 Date: Thu Oct 27 13:12:21 2011 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: wicd UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-25 (1 days ago) ** Affects: wicd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-bug i386 oneiric running-unity -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/882773 Title: nameserver IP address ignored, no DNS lookup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wicd/+bug/882773/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
