As cb400f has just mentioned to me on IRC, I think listing NM settings in YaST is problematic. New users seem to think that they can configure NM in yast, and hence have to enter IE ESSID/WEP keys etc for wireless cards, which isn't really true at all :/
Hm, Apo just made one of my points for me. Another thing, I believe should be adressed in a new and improved ui is the hostname and gateway stuff. I very often see people on IRC and in forums that have problems because they forget to enter DNS and/or gateway when they use static IP. There's of course two reasons for this: 1) Users being foolish 2) These settings being a little bit "hidden", making them easy to "forget". Solution - make it more dominant - or maybe show dns+gateway in the "summary" http://en.opensuse.org/Image:041007_networkcard_global_device.png -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-usability+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-usability+help@opensuse.org
