Should I remove network manager?
I have been using eth0 / dhcp ip and eth0:1 static ip in my Feisty. Now in Hardy I have always restart network after boot to get my one wire double net to work. Is it better to remove Network manager or change to other, perhaps NM makes problems? How easily take wireless card to use if necessary without NM?
Re: Should I remove network manager?
just try disabling it this way:
Code:
sudo touch /etc/default/NetworkManager
sudo touch /etc/default/NetworkManagerDispatcher
echo "exit" | sudo tee -a /etc/default/NetworkManager
echo "exit" | sudo tee -a /etc/default/NetworkManagerDispatcher
then reboot.
if you wish to start using NetworkManager again, simply delete these two files like so:
Code:
sudo rm /etc/default/NetworkManager
sudo rm /etc/default/NetworkManagerDispatcher
reboot, and NetworkManager will be active again.

How do I get Network Manager to appear in the panel again?
Re: Should I remove network manager?
right click on panel > add to panel
you should see network-manager in the list.
if that does not work, add the "notification area" instead.

here's what finally worked:
edit /etc/rc.local with the following command
Code:
gksudo nano /etc/rc.local
and add "NetworkManager" above "exit 0", so that it looks like this
Code:
#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.
NetworkManager
exit 0
then reboot, and the network manager applet will be in your notification area.
