I am using Interpid with Network Manager 0.7 but NM does not allow me to manage dialup connections. I do not see Dialup connections or ppp in NM at all. If I start a ppp connection the normal way using pppd it is not recognized by NM and I cannot use VPN connections in NM. -- network-manager does

That's one of a thousand reasons I decided to quit linux on desktop. After buying a macbook, I have almost the same features, without stupid issues and lack of basic functionality. Now, I only use ubuntu where it works better: the server. -- network-manager doesn't handle ppp connections. https

And NM is completely broke for EVDO modems. I have a Pantech with Verizon service. It is fully recognized at /dev/ttyACM0. NM demands a username although it is not used. (stupidmode=on for wvdial) Even if I type all the stuff in correctly, NM refuses to dial and/or connect. There is no help w

I also can confirm this in Hardy Final. It uses NM 0.6.6 and even after I use the applet to successfully connect via ppp0 (via evdo verizon wireless) it still reports I am offline. Does anyone know when NM 0.7 will be generally available (Gnome 2.24 in October?). Is there a development build we

I strongly agree with both Simone and alef13. The question is: why I have to explain my parents that they have to uncheck "offline mode" in Firefox to surf the web? After all, Ubuntu is Linux for human beings! This is not going to be good marketing for a LTS version. My take is defer the release

I agree with alef13. You need to write on the ubuntu.com homepage : "If you don't have an ethernet connection, please don't download Ubuntu Hardy, go for another distro please!" I'm ironic, but this is the sad truth... -- network-manager doesn't handle ppp connections. https://bugs.launchpad.net/

How about the lack of ability to manage ppp and other non-eth connections? Without that we cannot use VPNs configured through NM since we're "offline". How about all the other applications such as evolution and pidgin? How about the new applications to come? As I wrote, programmers of third-par

The short comings of network manager could easily be overcome if the applications that use it could be configured to ignore it. Firefox should have a switch in about:config so that it can always start online. -- network-manager doesn't handle ppp connections. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2204
