[Bug 383195] New: knetworkmanager does not notify about NetworkManager not running
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=383195 Summary: knetworkmanager does not notify about NetworkManager not running Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: hschaa@novell.com ReportedBy: sven.burmeister@gmx.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Because of bug 383189 knetworkmanager is started without NetworkManager actually being available. Instead of telling the user that without NetworkManager knetworkmanager cannot work. What it mediates via the greyed out icon is that the network is not active, which is wrong and different from a not existing network-connection, due to NetworkManager not being available. Further it offers the functionality to work in "offline mode" which should only be offered if it actually worked and if it would be possible to switch back to "online mode" afterwards. Expected behaviour: - Do not mediate a not active, but a not existing connection. - Do not mediate the ability to manage the network without NetworkManager being available. -- 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.
