I followed the advice given to get the version of NM from updates-testing, and it seemed to work as suggested - I was able to tick the checkbox. I haven't checked the version numbers, but something was downloaded when I ran "sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update NetworkManager", so I take it there was a newer version there. This was a few days ago; maybe that version is now standard? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College Dublin _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
