Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I'm using network-manager with DSL. My DSL connection is rather
unreliable, so it disconnects or refuses to connect relatively often. A
major feature of network-manager for me is that it attempts to reconnect
automatically, another one is that it displays me whether the connection
works right now thanks to its icon.
that second feature stopped working in 10.04. Now the icon of network-
manager is the same whether i'm in fact online or not. i do get a
notification that the connection was lost, so network-manager knows that
i'm now offline, but the icon stays the same.
i don't know if it's a problem of the icon set (Humanity) or of network-
manager.
i do have besides the DSL connection also a second network card for the
local area connection. that second connection is always working. maybe
the network-manager icon is showing me the status of that second
connection, but if that is the case, it really makes no sense, it should
show me the status of the connection bridging me to internet.
