I encountered aother intresting networking problem that may be possibly related ad thought it worth mentioning....
I am on a network with 2 gateways . by default the IP ending in .1 is issued by DHCP , however with a manual conbfiguratiopn we can switch to the .2 gateway. Doing this in Mint 13 Mate has no effect and leaves me in gateway .1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1005593 Title: Mate proxy settings does not work in Maya (mate-network-properties) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linuxmint/+bug/1005593/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
