I'd forgotten about the interface names being changed. It's a clean, 'from scratch' 13.2 installation, so it must be using them. I'll take that into account when I resume my debugging next weekend. (I've restored my 12.3 system in the interim.)
I for one will be very interested in what you find out!
I've done three fresh installations (not upgrades) of 13.2 here, all from full DVD - two on static-address machines in a small wired home LAN, and one on a gateway machine which has two NICs, one with a static address on the same internal LAN and the other pointing at a broadband modem using DHCP.
In all three cases I had difficulties with setting up a working Internet connection. None of the machines would connect to the Internet during installation. Then, after installation, it took prolonged futzing around with "wicked" and "NetworkManager" to get an external connection working in each case, and at such a frustration level that I really have no idea what it was I actually did to turn the key. All I can say is that, highly subjectively, it seems to me that the implementation of "wicked" as a replacement for "ifup" has some way to go; and/or that "wicked" and "NetworkManager" seemed to get in each other's way.
Hi Robin, I'm certainly not happy that you've experienced the same problem, but it helps to know this system isn't the only one being affected. I'll post back next weekend, when it's sorted out and if I find anything new and interesting to report. regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
