[Bug 739486] Re: user-created connections don't appear before restart

 

I just wanted to add that I run Gentoo and am currently using
NetworkManager 0.9.1.90 with knetworkmanager from git under KDE 4.7.2. I
have also experienced the trouble of connections I've created not
appearing in the menu. I've also tried Gnome's nm-applet, and both
exhibit the same undesired behavior. For some reason, the only
connections that do appear in the menu immediately are ad-hoc
connections where I choose "link-local" in the IPv4 settings tab.

Title:
  user-created connections don't appear before restart

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Similarly to bug 717632:

  Connections created by a user without setting "available to all users"
  aren't immediately available for selection until after restarting nm-
  applet.

  For instance, I create a new wired connection, it doesn't show in the
  list for my wired device until nm-applet is restarted. On the other
  hand, when setting "Available to all users", it does.
