Public bug reported:
After upgrading to 16.04 desktop (unity) (clean install) from 14.04,
(so not really upgrading, but you get the point) I noticed that lightdm
with unity-greeter (all stock, nothing changed) can't connect to WiFi
with network-manager.
WiFi works after loggin it, but it should be working before also, if
not, what's the point in having an icon there :)
I get the following message: Failed to add/activate connection. - (1)
Insufficient privileges. - see image.
This worked fine in 14.04.
I have noticed this problem in both my desktop (Broadcom WiFi) and
Laptop (Intel WiFi) - So it has nothing to be with the chip.
Feel free to ask for more info.
