hi!
I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 with Gnome 3.6 on a brand-new Samsung NP900X4C.
The installer detected the wireless adapter, took in the SSID and WPA passphrase, wrote these into /etc/network/interfaces and connected perfectly.
Once installation was finished I wanted to switch to using NetworkManager to manage the wireless adapter, since this is much more convenient than fiddling with /etc/network/interf
NetworkManager is not required. In fact it is rather useless on a server. Configure the network without NetworkManager and then you can remove it. [by toracat]
I've got a laptop which I use two wireless adapters with. With one of them, I'd like NetworkManager to manage and automatically connect me to wireless networks when they're available. The other, I want NetworkManager to leave alone, letting me hack on it with iwconfig and whatnot.
Whenever I boot into Fedora 16 (KDE Spin), the network manager system tray icon is set to "M" and it says that NetworkManager startup required. I restart NetworkManager and everything seems to start working normally.
Recently, NetworkManager has stopped listing access points completely. In fact, VPNC config is not listed in my NetworkManager list of items.
NetworkManager, a program that works as network connection manager for most RPM and Debian-based distributions, is now at version 0.9.8.
NetworkManager 0.9.8 is a stable release and incorporates a significant number of fixes and changes.
Highlights of NetworkManager 0.9.8:
• New AvailableConnections property for Device objects has been added;
• The handling of various rfkill/Airplane
Not sure if I'm on the right track here, but you can start/stop/enable/disable etc NetworkManager with: systemctl start NetworkManagerwifi-menu will not work if NetworkManager is running and vice-versa.I use NetworkManager, but if I don't boot into a gui cause somethings broken, then I have to stop NetworkManager in order for wifi-menu to work.
Most people suffer from problems with Networkmanager after a crash or after not being able to return from sleep/hybernate mode.
Neither reinstalling Networkmanager nor changing to ifup and then switching back to networkmanager solves this problem, because it is located in a config file which is not being overwriten during reinstall or configuration by yast.
Hi,
I have a problem getting my VPN to work.
In /var/log/syslog I get the following when trying to connect through network-manager.
