When creating new connections pptp, point VPN-connection does not appear in the applet. Pls, fix it.

It takes a bit of time before it will show, but I think I can now conclusively say this is fixed in code I'm just about ready to upload....

After your patch has become even worse. nm-applet "normal" only works in Unity. Please fix the Bug #811625

With recent patches network manager menu is barely functional. Using latest stock NM on stock 11.04.

Typically after a restore the sub-menus for 'More Networks...' for wifi, and the 'VPNs' sub-menu, turn into empty little stubs, so you can select anything that is supposed to be on them. So far a completed restart is the only way I can restore them; stopping/starting the network-manager service or stopping/starting networking doesn't help.

With last update the enable/disable wireless doesn't work, once connected to wifi I can switch to a wired configuration any more. After restore the 'Edit connections...' option doesn't work.

Does NM/Ubuntu only support Unity now? I tried hard to switch to Unity for 4 full weeks with 11.04, but I just couldn't my work done with all the chrome problems; it just killed my productivity. So I am back on Gnome + Docky.

Aaron, the issue you're reporting is something different, please file a separate new bug report. We don't support just Unity but it does happen that people run into issues that don't get identified until after release, which is why it's good to file separate bugs for your own issue (and I'll mark as duplicate of another once that's ascertained).

This was fixed in Oneiric with the latest revisions of nm-applet, it works properly in xubuntu, ubuntu, even gnome shell. Closing Fix Released.
