Recent UGR build for Raring?

[kansasnoob]

do you know what kernel the mini iso is running ? none of the 3.6 0r 3.7 kernels will boot on my machine . I couldn't boot raring with any thing later than the 3.5-7 kernel from quantal until I installed the 3.8rc1 .

It's 3.7.0-7-generic.

This worked for me. The only glitch is that the network icon in the top bar has a little 'x' in it, and it declares that my Wired connection is 'unmanaged'. However, the connection is working just fine. Anyone know how I can fix it?

Other than that, this mini->UGR installation is working fine...

Same here, I just chalked it up to early dev borked artwork

Normally I would to, but usually when that 'x' is there is says 'disconnected' - I've never seen 'unmanaged' before, and wonder if some piece of plumbing wasn't brought in by u-g-r.

But hey, as long as it works...

Isn't it unmanaged if You take control over it through ifupdown by entering appropriate lines in /etc/network/interfaces and/or in NM config file...?
It was like that since couple of releases ago...
At my place it is umnanaged (almost) all the time...

I guess it means that the wired network is unmanaged by Network Manager which does not need or use the interfaces file. I think that putting anything in /etc/network/interfaces except

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

will interfere with Network manager.

I do not have this issue on my Gnome Remix. Try seeing what is in the interfaces file.

Ah, my interfaces file had, in addition to the lines you mentioned, the following:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

I commented it out, rebooted, and no more little 'x' in the icon. Live and learn!

Thanks for the tip...

Ditto. I wonder if this is just a mini.iso thing?

I expect it is - the mini.iso isn't counting on any particular DE being installed with its Network Managers and such, and is not worrying about any indicators in some panel...

I seem to have anthropomorphized the mini.iso. I really shouldn't - she hates when I do that...

It might but it doesn't have to, depending of ifupdown settings in NM config file...

Here from the mini.iso install, - while I set up wireless to do the install afterwards it was as seen 'unmanaged'.
Even though wireless would work the g-c-c panel showed nothing & was basically worthless, certainly if wanting to connect to another wireless access.

Best fixed here by -
sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf
and editing false to true

[ifupdown]
managed=true

Then
sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager restart

brought back as expected
