Description Vish 2010-01-20 17:25:59 UTC 
Bug first reported in launchpad:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/network-manager-applet/+bug/439864

"When you first log in, and mouse-over the nm-applet (don't click), it doesn't show any tooltips. 

The similarly if you're trying to connect to an other network. there are no tooltips.

It would be ideal it nm applet says "connection available" in the first case and "trying to connect to xxxx network" in the second one "

I supposed this is just Ubuntu removing the tooltips for design reasons and then this upstream bug report can be closed.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being shut down in favor of a GitLab instance. 
We are closing all old bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen updates for a long time.

If you still use NetworkManager and if you still see this bug / want this feature in a recent and supported version of NetworkManager, then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented (workforce and time is unfortunately limited).
