that happens on upstream libnl for a while now: https://github.com/thom311/libnl/commit/23c4ef67c735813fd41f66f6722b996d1ad7314a Anyway, the message is harmless then. > it comes back with the following error message: > >NetworkManagerFailed to read classid file: Object not found that sounds like NetworkManager just deamonizes as expected. Normally, you would not start NetworkManager directly via /sbin/NetworkManager. First make sure that the manually started NM is not running, by $ killall NetworkManager Then you start it via systemd $ systemctl start NetworkManager Thomas
