On my 64bits Tumbleweed machine I have the same problem to activate a wireless USB dongle. So I use the Wiki article "Reporting Wicked/Networking related bugs" to report the problem. It looks like sequencing processes is not right. dec 11 12:54:49.466295 eiktum wickedd[1268]: ni_wpa_interface_bind(wlp0s22f2u2): Interrupted system call dec 11 12:54:49.466299 eiktum wickedd[1268]: wpa_supplicant doesn't know interface wlp0s22f2u2 The suggested solution by Luca Billi about changing the starting order does not work, which did work in August on the 32bit machine, but now not anymore. So the following attachments will be added: config-ifcfg.tgz config-dump.log status.log journal.log, however using grep wicked ip_addr.log routes.log wicked-version.log iptables.txt ip6tables.txt hwinfo-netcard.log wpa_supplicant.log
