The bug is still there in current cauldron @ dmorgan: Funny, there is no drakx-net maintainer, but this bug is still assigned to you, you even accepted it on 2011-03-02 Any news?

But, it is working in my Cauldron (in virtual machine, that is).

Hi, This bug was filed against cauldron, but we do not have cauldron at the moment. Please report whether this bug is still valid for Mageia 2. Thanks :) Cheers, marja

Assigning to blino. @dmorgan: Did you already have anything finished, so that blino doesn't duplicate your work?

Please don't play with the bugzilla
Version: 2 => CauldronSeverity: normal => enhancement
I do not want to "play" with the bugzilla. I just want to put in "Version" that the bug is still valid in Mageia 2 as written in comment 16 and as I observed it in a fresh install of Mageia 2. I made a mistake because I want to say that the bug in Cauldron before the release of Mageia 2 is still valid in Mageia 2. Sorry for that change. But, concerning the severity, IMHO it should be "normal" and not "enhancement" because it is a bug : the button "Monitor" doesn't work after a fresh install. We have to know that the package net-monitor has to be installed manually. Sorry for this change but I didn't expect that I had the rights to do that change. Concerning the fix for this bug, I have search in the source code and I think that the fix should be here : soft/drakx-net/trunk/lib/network/connection_manager.pm line 242 : sub monitor_connection { my ($cmanager) = @_; my $interface = $cmanager->{connection} && $cmanager->{connection}->get_interface or return; run_program::raw({ detach => 1 }, '/usr/bin/net_monitor', '--defaultintf', $interface); } But I don't know the method to request an installation. I hope that very little contribution should help the resolution.
increasing severity (this is a bug that confuses a lot of users)
Severity: enhancement => normal
