This will bring up a window from which you can select your desired interface, then click "Edit...". You'll be presented with a configuration window for the selected interface. As I recall, NetworkManager will not manage interfaces that are set up in the traditional manner. So you might want to make "blank" copies of your setup files, and let NM do its thing. Unfortunately, I know nothing about how Slackware has its config files arranged, so I can't help there. Hope this helps. --Dale -- I have a simple question, The truth I only wish: Are all fishermen liars, Or do only liars fish? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
