are you sure, the root password is the one it asks for? Normally *your* password is required.
The pop-up window text reads:

Yes, that is what I expected. But why does it want to change anything?
Dunno, it started after I enabled that option "enable for all users" (not sure about the exact text). I later tried to disable it again, but it won't let me. I untick the box, but the Ok button remains greyed out.
The thing is, it has to be enabled for all users if you want the connection to be working during boot. Otherwise, it will wait till the user logs in.
Aha, thanks for that explanation, I ws wondering what it meant. Well, ticking that box did not make it work during boot. When I boot up and then log in, I see the network manager icon connecting (the cirle is rotating). After 5-10 seconds the pop-up window asks for root password.
I think you should try with another desktop. XFCE or LXDE. For testing.
Maybe - I don't know how much time I want to waste on this. I would rather spend it on getting wicked to work, unfortunately noone has picked up the bugreport so far. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.4°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
