Its a built-in chipset, intel 4965AG, and it was working with kernel 2.6.24, but I fail with any kernel newer. 2.6.26 had serious problems with rfkill-switch, and the only way for me was to unload the driver module, switch on the wifi-interface, load module again and then it worked. A little bit clumsy, but it worked. With 2.6.27 I entirely fail to get any connection at all. The wifi-interface refuses to accept any ESSID. So, is there a howto that describes how to get wireless to work? Maybe in a way so that I switch on the interface and no troubles with rfkill, etc? Thanks in advance Alex Take a look at the old gentoo wiki. i think is in www.gentoo-wiki.info. After kernel 2.6.26 yo have to change a couple of options and start using the open intel driver for that chip

I can't see anything in /etc/conf.d/mysql or in /etc/mysql/* on either machine to restrict network access, so what have I missed? Check the bind-address setting in /etc/my.cnf - if this is 127.0.0.1 then no other machines will be able to connect to the mysql server.

not quite sure what /dev/null would do. I tried this with
net.eth0:
sudo /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart /dev/null
and it got rid of all the output. To be sure, you could add 21
sudo /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart /dev/null 21

This is my tty1 after i start Networkmanager (not net.eth0, which are
different services)
yes, I know :) I was just using net.eth0 as an example because I was
too lazy to install networkmanager and see for myself!
and connect to a wireless network. The same happend when
i bootup my system. I need my tty's to work and plus all thi info is odd
and
useless

Did you try my suggestion?
sudo /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart /dev/null 21
did it help? (substitute net.eth0 with NetworkManager ;)
It looks like all the output comes from this line in the init script
(again, only looking in the source, so YMMV)
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec ${processname}
try adding
/dev/null 21
to the end of it.

Hi!
about sudo /etc/init.d/net.eth0 restart /dev/null 21 I tried this before
send this email, but the NetworkManager logs info and debug in the tty1
anyway, the only change is that i don't see any output in the terminal i run
the command.
about start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec ${processname} yes, i also
tried your suggestion before send the email, but with the same bad result.
I not sure but for me, the parameter console=tty1 i have in the the kernel
line i use in grub have something to do (i use fbsplash and fbcondecor), but
is not the only reason, i check sabayon linux which use NetworkManager,
fbsplash and fbconvecor just like the way i do, but NM don't do the same.
Many thanks for your help!
Cheers!

I don't like all that output, with a simple Network manager starting [OK] is enough, which i see in the terminal when i manually start the service is ok. What can i do to avoid this? what's wrong with output? can you post the output verbatim? I had a look at the init script and it doesn't seem to print much.
