The workaround posted by GeekSmith works. However, I think this is a more elegant (and, possibly, _the_) solution:
One of the two files mentioned contains this section: <policy group="netdev"> <allow own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo"/> <allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/> </policy> However, the equivalent in the other file is: <policy group="netdev"> <allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/> <allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/> </policy> Adding the missing line to the second file, and of course adding my user name to the netdev group, solved the problem for me. Group policies are "better" than individual user policies, right? -- knetworkmanager "no network device found" if wired connection plugged in before starting https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/50770 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
