[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#588593: network-manager: broken mobile broadband

Sat Jul 10 00:58:37 UTC 2010

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8-1

Hello,

since i updated some of the packages on my machine (i386 - testing), i  
cannot connect to the internet using a mobile broadband device with  
network-manager. If i click on the logo of nm-applet in the system  
tray, i can select my mobile broadband device out of the list of  
available connections. But then it shows a message, that the  
connection was reset.

I don’t think it’s a bug of network-manager, but i don’t know who’s bug it is.

Please tell me how to provide more information on this bug.

Best regards
Miche
