  • Bug Status changed from Unconfirmed to New

Copying /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-Auto_Ethernet from my Fedora 18 image into the SoaS 8 image restored networking.

When you say "Sugar in a window" you mean running it in a window within a gnome session?

Yes.

(Networking is also lost in SoaS 9 Avocado.)

Yes.

Well the gnome-shell has control over the networking when running in a window mode and sugar is basically an application running within the gnome desktop so doesn't have complete control over the network because it's gnome who has the rights so it's not expected to work the the full extent if the shell was in control. The only thing you really get in that mode is the status that your online so that sharing/chat/buddy list works.

Again, is this in the Window mode? The window mode in F19 is really dead, in fact it should have really been removed and has been removed complete in F-20. It's not meant to be a means of using it day to day but rather a means of developers quickly testing their changes.

No. This occurs in plain SoaS.
