Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hal
Using Jaunty with all of today's updates through ~1430ET (USA), the
NetworkManager applet doesn't seem to provide a way to disassociate from
a wireless connection other than disabling the radio. Left- or right-
clicking the existing connection (an infrastructure network in this
case) causes a disassociation and reassociation rather than just
disassociating or providing link info or something more... useful.
Following the design of the existing VPN sub-menu (when a VPN connection
is active) might be helpful.
(And the laptop (Lenovo T500) can't see the radio at all (not just in
NM) unless booted with the rfkill switch off and /left/ that way after
booted. But I'm seeing reports for a couple other laptops indicating
this may be an upstream HAL bug.)
** Affects: hal (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
