In comparison to knetworkmanager from 10.3 I miss these features in beta3:
* no openvpn-plugin (other vpn aswell)
Known issue.
* no info about current ip-address and other details
The same.
* no editing/deleting of defined connections
Deleting connections is possible as of Beta3 using "edit connections" in the context menu of the main tray icon.
* no on/off switch (only not working "deactivate")
Not sure about that one.
nm-applet has a bit more, but current situation is a regression to 10.3
But i've to say the new approach of knetworkmanager to use per-device icons is good. But e.g. the vpn-setup would require another icon ?
This is a bit difficult as you could start the same VPN-connection twice, once on the wired interface and once on the wireless interface. No solution yet. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Ok, delete that one ... I missed the globe and looked only at the device icons. Need to check if the globe is shown at startup because i manually started it here atm (knetworkmanager)!! Or i need to clean my glasses befor restarting beta3 ;) If i just missed the globe, sri for the noise. But i checked twice ...
* no on/off switch (only not working "deactivate")
Not sure about that one. Wireless off is in the knetworkmanager main icon i just discovered now. Also "offline-mode"
nm-applet has a bit more, but current situation is a regression to 10.3

Idea: -> do vpn only with the main icon ? So remaining: - *vpn-plugins - info/details about assigned ip and so on - (better) editing connections -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
