2020-01-03 Thread Franz Fellner
Here is a patch that brings back LMB actions when the applets are locked. With unlocked applets LMB is needed for editing, and I didn't want to spend too much time on it. Read here for some discussion: https://phabricator.kde.org/D24748 But better than nothing, isn't it? ;) Place it into

Re: [gentoo-user] openrc: NetworkManager deleted from all runlevels, but it runs anyway [SOLVED]

[gentoo-user] openrc: NetworkManager deleted from all runlevels, but it runs anyway

What do I have to do to prevent NetworkManager from running? I am running a prepared gentoo image which has openrc and NetworkManager configured.  The wpa_gui app doesn't see my wireless (but starting the wpa_supplicant from rc-service does). So, I removed NetworkManager with:     rc-update
