I encountered this problem and figured out that it's a misleading UI. After entering IPs for Address, Netmask, and Gateway, I clicked the "Add" button, thinking this would store it. I then went on to fill out "DNS servers" etc. I then encountered the grayed-out "Save" button, with seemingly no way to save these changes.
(Incidentally, the "Available to all users" box was also unchecked and grayed out.) I then realized that clicking "Add" did not, like I had assumed, add the data I'd just entered, but instead opened up a new line, and that the reason the "Save" button is grayed out is because the new line does not contain any valid data. Selecting the accidental new line and clicking "Delete" restored the "Save" button to an active, clickable state. The inadvertent new line is easy to overlook because it's completely blank, with its shaded background the only thing to suggest there's anything there. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/737615 Title: can't save changes in "edit connections" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/737615/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
