Title:
  "Failed to add/activate connection: (32) Not authorized to control
  networking"

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I open n-m applet to connect to wifi click on my ssid and get the
  folloing dialog window

  Failed to add/activate connection:
  (32) Not authorized to control networking.

  If I try and connect via ubiquity itself the installer just locks up
  on enabling the wifi.

  I switched to Live desktop and there the wifi is working as expected.
