Perhaps you can point me to some useful documentation on how to get NM up during boot, rather than when I log in as a user -- preferably something that can be fully set up during the upgrade process.
I am configuring NM with nmtui which is a curses type application. It hardly needs documentation, except for the fact of its existence, which is not that well advertised.
I have [now] successfully used it to configure wireless, to operate portably on several networks and also wired with fixed IP and DHCP on the one interface. So that covers most ordinary uses short of routing through a machine.

Hmmm... Root@mako ~ # nmtui If 'nmtui' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this: cnf nmtui root@mako ~ # cnf nmtui nmtui: searching ... Warning: incomplete repos found but could not refresh - try to refresh manually, e.g. with 'zypper refresh'. nmtui: command not found root@mako ~ # zypper se NetworkManager Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... [...] | NetworkManager-tui | NetworkManager curses-based UI | package Not very helpful when cnf can't tell me that nmtui should be found in package NetworkManager-tui. Is that worth a bug report (TW btw).
