Is it possible to run Networkmanager in a way which does not conflict with additional manual setup? Whenever I tried NM I noticed that the ip command seems to become useless.
Define useless.
For example after adding adresses (ip a a ...) they disappeared again after a some seconds.
That doesn't mean ip is becoming useless, just that NM is missing some important functionality. In your example, ip is doing exactly what it is supposed to do and if NM then removes the address, it's matter of what NM should or shouldn't do and has nothing to do with usefulness of ip. IMHO ip is in fact becoming more and more useful recently.
Yes, that's what I wanted to say. Using NM makes it impossible to do something useful with the great ip tool. Of course this is not ip's fault.
Back to topic. Are the suse ifup scripts able to call pppd directly somehow? If not then we should change this before throwing away smpppd. NM is obiously no option for many use cases.
NM can work in console? With the adsl modems when it are setted in the bridge mode, one must to manage the login process to the ISP acount, and the way to setup it was via the Yast DSL module of the network devices (without NM), and for this connection was necesary smpppd. The last versions of opensuse hatte problems with the Yast DSL module: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=721872 NM do'nt use smpppd for the DSL modems?
