I installed a couple packages on my Debian system... laptop-mode-tool and laptop-netconf, which I believe can work together to make this kind of thing easy to manage. I figure you ought to be able to find them for your system. I've gotten used to running dhclient on the command line, so I don't bother configuring the networking part of it and can't offer more help than this. hope that helps a little. - Ben _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
