Even after configuring my eth0/1 the way I like them, it still kept the "auto eth0" and "auto eth1" things in the tray menu - why ?
NetworkManager (the daemon, not knetworkmanager) creates these entries, and knetworkmanager has not yet got a facility to rename/edit/delete them. You can delete the configuration for them in YaST to get rid of them permanently. Another workaround is you can disable NM in YaST, edit system-wide Ethernet settings to your taste, reenable NM, go to /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ and edit the resulting connection files, changing the id field.
And when I started clicking on them things shifted around and got even more confusing. Instead of adding a check-mark it shifted the connection to the top - why ?
KDE Usability people, supported by GNOME nm-applet's research, told us users want to see active connections first.
And when I told it to limit connection "eth0" to interface "eth0" it still only used eth1
And the DSL link I configured didn't show up in the list at all ... even
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217015 , which I am testing the fix for atm though it connected. That's a new bug - I don't have any DSL hardware to test this though. Since you seem to be 'happy' with qinternet and triage assigned this to me I will hijack this report for this issue.
And I need both of eth0/eth1 up at the same time and not just one of them.
This should work, I have tested this.
I need something simple that doesn't try to be more intelligent than me and doesn't interfere with my wired network settings.
Configuring NM to leave wired alone is demonstrated here: http://peternixon.net/news/2009/06/05/configure-opensuse-networkmanager-to-i... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
