[Bug 852251] Re: You can not edit or create new connection

 

You shouldn't have to be root to create connections. New installs appear
to me to work properly (I just tried with a fairly recent daily image).

What kind of connection are you trying to create? For wifi, given that
there is no wifi device detected on your system, it's normal for the
buttons to be greyed out. However, you should still be able to configure
new wired connections.
