Hi,
I 've looked at linuxconf system profiles : that's great in theory but
what a mess ! I have a notebook which is sometimes on the network with
dhcp and sometime in standalone with a modem. When i boot on linux
without being connected to the network i have to wait for 5 minutes for
dhcp to fail and the boot goes on ! I think this should be set up at the
install with drakX. Something like "this is a notebook, let's configure
two profiles : how do you connect when your at home ? at work ? etc..."
Another detail : my network have a xfs font server -> the XF86Config
file should be different if i'm on network and the xfs service should
start only when i'm in standalone...
The drakconf profiles doesn't talk about you nis domain, your NFS mount
points, and really, this should be great if Mdk makes a great interface
to that : linuxconf is really ununderstandable.
Notebooks ARE becoming more and more importants in enterprise and home
networks : i hope this is a priority at mandrake to provide good tools
for notebooks users in next release...
Thanks,
Henri
