[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#643028: NetworkManager can't connect to new networks

[Jonathan Ballet]

Hi Peter,

I believe I suffer from the same problem as you : I can connect to saved
networks but not new ones.

However, when I the connection can't be made, I've got the following
line in my .xsession-errors:

** (nm-applet:1715): WARNING **: Failed to add/activate connection: (32)
Insufficient privileges.

The kind of things I can't also do are adding manually a new connection
if the "Available to all users" checkbox is checked, since I got a
"Insufficient privileges" dialog box error.
If I try to edit a new connection and to chec this box, I don't have the
error, but somehow, this particular setting is lost when I try to edit
connections again.

It might be related to the numerous problems with ConsoleKit and display
manager. My setup consists of Slim (DM) and Awesome (WM).

Hope it helps,

 Jonathan
