Why this bug has status Fix Released when it's clearly not resolved.
Obviously Ubuntu developers think that users should search for half-assed workarounds
on forums and bugtrackers.

I'm using wvdial for my connection because it's a better option. My internet disconnects
once an hour passed and then I have to make new connection (it's a free internet and this is one
of it's limitations the other is 60 KB/s max).

NetworkManager in this case requiers baby sitting. While wvdial connects automatically.
With NM I have to put out the modem than plug it in and make a connection.

Ubuntu Software Center isn't the only program with this bug. Ubuntu One Client also doesn't work
with wvdial until I run "sudo stop network-manager" (it doesn't sync files).

I'm writing that from Ubuntu 12.10 fully updated with proposed actualisations enabled.
