Bug Description

I can't connect Ubuntu One computer with the webpage.

I use wicd as network client instead of NetworkManager. So i get the error:

> ubuntuone-client-applet
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on org.freedesktop.NetworkManager:/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files

Thanks

A very hackish workaround that mimics the exception handling above it. It still produces the error in the log file, but at least it gets you online.

@Kevin Otte

This works for me on a fresh Karmic with Wicd instead of NetworkManager.
Thanks for the pointer!

I finally can add my computer with this workaround... Still not syncing ... But it's better.
