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

 

I have found how to solve my problem of graying out for Network Manager

sleep mode), then I re-start it and "Edit Connections" line is sentitive
again.....!

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

  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.
