http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=608912 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=608912#c0 Summary: Starting NetworkManager from Gnome main menu? Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Factory Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: ke@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Documentation Blocker: --- From: Karl Eichwalder Subject: [opensuse-gnome] Starting NetworkManager from Gnome main menu? To: opensuse-gnome@opensuse.org Date: Fri, 21 May 2010 14:08:23 +0200 According to the openSUSE manual (Start-Up) you could start the "Network Connections" dialog from the Gnome main menu, if you click on the "Network:" entry in the right pane while NM is running. Now (tested on M7) the Yast network configuration is called. ====================================================================== It shows "Network: Wired", which is correct. I installed from the net (with NIS for user authentification) and ended up with the traditional method (ifconfig) as expected. Then I switched to NM using the yast config dialog. A pop-up in the bottom right notification area confirmed that NM took over successfully. =======================================================================

This happened on standard desktop computer without WLAN hardware. Next week I can hopefully test it on a laptop.

Results are the same on a laptop with WLAN hardware. -- 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.
