I have similar problem. Suddenly my networking stopped working. The problem was it could not assign the DNS servers, even when I typed them in the network manager. Finally I edited /etc/resolv.conf
And even now when it is working I see the same thing: Error displaying connection information: No valid active connections found! I run Kubuntu 8.10 -- NetworkManager Applet cannot see my ethernet connection anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305398 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
