Dear Trisquelistos -

I have a question about network issues.
I have a network card in my Thinkpad, which - though it claims to be a
freedom-loving Atheros-card fit for the Ath5k driver - will only work
with a non-free driver. This is a known issue, and... it doesn't seem
likely to change.
Now, I have a PCMCIA card which loves the RT2500 driver, and which is
on the FSF list of fully supported cards. Therefore, that is what I use
with the FaiF distributions, and that works like a charm.
However, it screws up using Network Manager, because NM will attempt to
connect to my network with both cards, switching back and forth,
getting a connection, throwing the connection - et cetera.
So can you tell me: How can I disable one of the network interfaces? Of
course, I could just use something like WICD, but it is nice to have
the integration of NM managing the networking.

Yours,
Morten
