I disabled NetworkManager because it is the source of problems which took me hours to solve: I forced the host name of my laptop to avoid problems with Xsession. I explain: suppose you begin your session without any wifi, your X session belongs to john....@localhost.localdomain. Then, for any reasons you can imagine, you need an Internet connection, the hostname change and you become john....@xxxx.wifiprovider.net and X refuses to open graphical apps because the session belongs to john....@localhost.localdomain Forcing the hostname in /etc/sysconfig/network avoids this problem. Now, when it writes the /etc/resolv.conf, NetworkManager writes: search yourdomain.fr (the one you have declared in /etc/sysconfig/network) and dns does not works...... Unless this strange/wrong behaviour of NetworkManager could be corrected, I never use this service. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 4286 2145 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkn9SwYACgkQdE6C2dhV2JVc6ACgyioPyFGTQdRJi+QIP6UX/orf resAn3xMmQovCuyMvJsbmvikjXJFvVrD =Qvxp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
