[Bug 1424119] Re: Edit Connections...now insensitive by default in network manager's menu

[michael]

Yes, I too have both the "edit connections" and "disconnect" buttons greyed out.
Upgraded this week to 12.04 LTS, with all updates (levels 1-3) installed.
They were not greyed out before installing the recommended updates.

Must disconnect by un-checking "enable wireless" box.

Acer Aspire E3-111 laptop.

Title:
  Edit Connections...now insensitive by default in network manager's
  menu

Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [SRU justification]

  [Impact]

  grayed out on network-manager-applet, can't click

  arno at arno-1000H:~$ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS
  Release:	12.04
  arno at arno-1000H:~$ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
  network-manager-gnome:
    Installé : 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4
    Candidat : 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4
   Table de version :
   *** 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4 0

  Might be after upgrade to network-manager-gnome 0.9.4.1-0ubuntu2.4,
  the item Edit Connections... at the bottom of the network manager's
  menu is now insensitive i.e. grayed out, therefore user cannot
  configure his/her connections as indicated in
  http://docs.xubuntu.org/1204/internet-networks.html#network-
  connections

  workaround : launch /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor to display the
  network connections window and have access to the settings.

  [Test Case]
  after updating network-manager-gnome on laptop, you can always see this problem.

  [Regression Potential]
