I believe this is more system-wide than just the gnome applet and network manager.
It happens the same on network-manager-kde , for the same reasons. Also, removable media mounting doesn't work, for the same reasons. Also, amarok can't detect any mp3 players, probably for the same reasons. Changing the dbus policies on the "default" side of things from "deny" to "allow" (I did it on all files) half-solves this problem. Knetworkmanager sort of works, and removable media can be mounted BUT providing a password first. I guess amarok can't spawn this "enter password" dialog so it ultimately fails to detect any mp3 players attached, even when already mounted. -- network-manager-gnome cannot attach successfully due to dbus settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/172616 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
