sure i tried. unfortunately: a) nm doesn't have an interactive configuration wizard like pppoeconf b) nm's default detail preferences seem uncompatible with certain hardware c) if newbies make mistakes, there is no easy way to reset nm to "auto" pppoeconf has none of these problems, gets your DSL up and running within seconds.. strange that the two programs refuse to get along with each other so badly.. -- No easy way to revert pppoeconf's configuration changes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151539 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
