[Bug 390838] New: yast prefers wlan over eth during installation
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=390838 Summary: yast prefers wlan over eth during installation Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 3 Platform: PowerPC OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: yast2-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: olh@novell.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- 11.0beta3 on PS3 A PS3 has an ethernet and a wlan interface. The ethernet interface has a cable connected. I dont know if the wlan interface can be used at all in our office. After an installation from DVD, with autoconfiguration and gnome desktop, the configured interface was wlan. Why did yast prefer wlan over eth? What is supposed to happen if a system has an ethernet card with cable plugged in and an (unused) wlan device? Also, after yast2 lan was started, the gnome start menu still had the Network: wireless, Interface: wlan0 active. This changed after a rcnetwork restart. I expected that yast does update such info. Maybe its a networkmanager thing. -- 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.
