So, ifup only works if you have a desktop with a single wired card
No, it works very well in any of our systems - servers, desktops, laptops, one card, two cards, multi-port cards, wifi, fibre, ptp, vlan etc. I can assure you, if ifup didn't work across the board, you would hear a lot of unhappy people here.
The new users never (rarely) use this mailing list. This mailing list is full of us crufty old farts who have been here forever. New users complain to me.. not the list.
In my case, I have 2 wired cards. In ifup, I only can switch with these card if I restart te system, becauase systemctl restart network.service doesn't work,
Then you ought to blame network.service.
BTW, without knowing the context, you could simply "ifdown eth0" and "ifup eth1" or vice versa.
You can... I can... can a new openSUSE user? Nope. So, instead of making life better for new users and improving openSUSE for new users, we say things like "it's easy just configure your supplicant file" or "why can't you ifup/ifdown" and so on.
Is there really an issue here wrt new users? I thought we'd established that the current default works very well, also for new users. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (0.7°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
