[12-03-13 19:45]: So, the question is in the subject. I'd like to understand the motivation behind this choice. In my opinion, NetworkManager should be the default for network setup. The use of ifup doesn't show any advantage: configuration for WiFi is problematic (and sometimes for wired networks too), it increases the startup time and the service doesn't restart properly.
OK, NetworkManager has its problems too, but it's a better solution than this, specially for newbies in this distro.
Yes, for me NetworkManager has major, critical problems. It doesn't work and hasn't since it came out. The *only* way I have network connection is via ifup. And that is on three boxes, one is wireless.
So, does someone have any plans to change this?
I surely hope not!
This is 2nd or 3rd openSUSE distro release with a NetworkManager that doesn't autostart. Maybe the fourth time (13.2) will be the charm. ;-) Cheers! Roman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
