Quoting Ruediger Meier <sweet_f_a@gmx.de>:
Well, that's why I am asking all this. I have static network setup and surely don't want to offer my users any network related stuff.
you seem to have a very specific usecase, which is valid. But don't expect the 'standard' setup to match each special usecase please. If you're worried about 'things starting when something is plugged in' then you should really have a look at udev and dbus: they interact a lot together and spawn all kind of different modules.
Actually now I have uninstalled and blacklisted ModemManager like I had already avahi and NetworkManager but how I know what else could pop up if a user starts gnome?
You don't want to block all the services; you better look at polkit rules to revoke the specific rights the users receive on a standard openSUSE setup.
Can I be sure that my network setup is static and nothing would change anything automatically nor users are allowed to this if they plugin their phones?
Disable USB and Serial Ports in the bios.. is the only way to be sure. Everything else, I'd recommend to go through the list of polkit privileges offered, analyse the DBUS Services installed on your system and potentially adjust udev rules to your liking.
I still wonder why things like ModemManager are installed and running by default after update. Because we like stuff to work when we need the stuff. Downloading a packet over internet while you're disconnected and try to get your modem running sounds like a bad plan :)
