[Bug 794761] Re: No valid active connections found

[Bowmore]

Package glib2.0 ver 2.29.6-0ubuntu1 installed.

TEST CASE  1:  LightDM and GDM installed.
Package glib2.0 ver 2.29.6-0ubuntu1 installed.

Running the System preferences > Network in the terminal:
$ gnome-control-center network

After some 80 seconds the Network windows pops up together with an alert:
"The system network services are not compatible with this version."

Only the option Network Proxy shows up, ie Wired and Wireless are
missing!

Downgrade and this works too.

TEST CASE 2: Removing LightDM, rebooting and thus running GDM.
Package glib2.0 ver 2.29.6-0ubuntu1 installed.

Running the System preferences > Network in the terminal:
$ gnome-control-center network

The Network window pops up at once also showning the options Wired and
Wireless.

No downgrade needed.

CONCLUSION:
The problem can be isolated to LightDM as far as I can see.
