This is still a problem for me in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. The workaround above worked for me: 1) add the wireless network using another protocol (LEAP) the connection will fail 2) now go back and edit the connection, this uses a different dialog which correctly gets focus 3) make sure you click "Don't remind me again"

The result of this is that I can't use a self-signed certificate, and so can't use the network. When I do go to select a certificate, it filters by file extension. The filter can't be disabled, so I don't see and can't select my certificates. Note that when exporting certs e.g. from Thunderbird, the extension is not added automatically, so it's likely that certs won't have an appropriate extension. Then in continuing interaction, gnome-settings manager segfaults. I've used the autoreport function to file that separately. peace, isaac To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/1130326/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
