------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-06-29 02:28 ------- Hi, I've installed networkmanager and networkmanager-kde on an Workstation only installation. The Problem is, that networkmanager automatically grabs every not static configured interface and deconfigure it as first step. So even if the Ethernet interface to tjener if configured via dhcp by ifupdown it will be deconfigured as soon as networkmanager starts (through dbus). One Option, but not a good one, is to configure the interface to tjener static. Networkmanager will then ignore this interface but continue to mange all other (e.g. WLan). Thins way one could log in to WLans when abroad and use wired network "at home". As we surly have not to search for too long to find scenarios and users how would like to use wired network abroad, the better option is to trigger networkmanager to go for dhcp on the wired interface as soon as it is started. I don't know yet, if there is a easier way than to send a dbus message to networkmanager, but I hope there is documentation somewhere which will tell.
