I have been struggling to configure my Wifi connection. I understood from previous threads that I have to remove NetworkManager.state and to do rcnetwork restart to be able to configure the Wifi connection with NetworkManager. This did not lead to success.
So now I intend to make a fresh 11.3 installation, remove NetworkManager.state and do rcnetwork restart. Then I'll do a NetworkManager guided install.
Can anybody tell me what's wrong in this approach?
Just curious, where did you read you need to remove NetworkManager.state? And.. are you using Gnome or KDE?
Generally speaking - set up your network card to use NetworkManager if it isn't already like that... and use the NetworkManager icon to connect... this is of course assuming you've got a recognized WiFi card.
On my netbook using an Atheros card, I don't do anything special at all... click the Network Manager icon, and follow it through to add a WiFi access point.

I learned it from earlier threads. I use KDE. I do not understand why I don't get a NetworkManager icon at all. May be that the trick? André -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
