*Before* reading my mail, please note: openSUSE 11.4 ran perfect on my machine, after the upgrade to 12.1, networkmanager doesn't run at all.I can't connect to my router anymore (which worked yesterday, even with 12.1). The result is a completely angry user, who just wants his sane and working 11.4-like system back. Please excuse my offending mail, but I'm boiling totally.
My problem:
After the upgrade, NetworkManager doesn't ran anymore. I did some searching and fixed the problem. Now, today, I started my machine but NM can't connect anymore. It just says something like:
Wait for authorization
On 11.4 it used to be KWallet which asked my a password for NM. With 12.1 it's a KDE-su like one.
Does anyone else has the problem? I'm writing from my notebook because my workstation isn't connected anymore.
The fantastic new completely refactored NM 0.9 now needs root privs to create or edit connections... But why use NetworkManager on a workstation to begin with? Using NM only makes sense when you have to connect to different networks _often_. You should use ifup on a workstation and save yourself the agony. And see /var/log/NetworkManager for more detailed information on what goes wrong. If plasmoid-networkmanagement is failing, try the gnome applet to see if the problem is with the applet or the backend. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
