Bug #67239: network manager key-entry dialog appears below all windows (minimised) | Fix Released |
Sprints
Whiteboard
Please fix the hidden SSID bug!! I live on Georgia Tech's campus with a hidden SSID and a WEP key and it is very annoying -- I have to type in the SSID and WEP key *every* time I want to connect to the network. NetworkManager will not automatically connect to hidden networks, even though the information for them is added in the GNOME configuration (visible under gconf-editor). See: https:/
It would be good to add an option to change the default mtu somewhere, as my isp uses a custom mtu setting. Thanks

asac: gutsy is released ... most annoying bugs should be fixed by now (including hidden SSID). Only bug not fixed in this spec summary is "#77299 "Password dialog appears on the wrong desktop when multiple users are logged on".
