[Bug 262183] New: NetworkManager "remembers" bad wireless settings
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=262183 Summary: NetworkManager "remembers" bad wireless settings Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 2 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Network AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ammulder@chariotsolutions.com QAContact: qa@suse.de If I try to configure my wireless security settings with NetworkManager, and the connection fails, and I select the same network to connect to again, it doesn't give me a chance to edit the settings. So it fails again. Under 10.2, my recollection is that it always came up with a blank settings screen if the previous attempt failed to connect. To me, it would be ideal if it brought the security settings screen up again, but with the previous values populated as defaults (perhaps leaving the passphrase blank if that's a security concern). As it is now, I seem to have to log out and log back in again in order to be able to change the settings and try again. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

That's how it works for me. Aaron, can you please give a bit more information on how to reproduce this issue? Can you please attach /var/log/NetworkManager?
