Comment 57 for bug 357395

The update 1.1+r278 did not fix the issue for me. At least that is how it appears to me. Please let me know if you think I did something wrong. Here are the details:

1. Added the line "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntuone/beta/ubuntu karmic main" to /etc/apt/sources.list.
2. Ran "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade".
3. Then tried to run ubuntuone from the command line:

/home/rajiv
rajiv@uBook:~$ /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/ubuntuone-client-applet --signup
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

I do get U1 icon in the panel, but it has a red cross on it. The command above is just waiting on the terminal -- not sure if I should have run it in the background or if it is expecting any other input on the command line. Looks like U1 still is looking for NM.

rajiv@uBook:~$ uname -a
Linux uBook 2.6.31-14-powerpc #48-Ubuntu Fri Oct 16 14:11:44 UTC 2009 ppc GNU/Linux

I am not running NM because it won't connect to my wireless router. I'm not running wicd either, because it has similar issues -- won't connect. I have Karmic on an iBook G3.

Why can't it work with an active and properly operating network connection?

Thanks -- I'd love to get a working U1.
