unmerge nm and everything associated with it. Comment out all lines in /etc/conf.d/net emerge wicd with the USE flags of your choice. All your problems will instantly go away, stay away, and wicd will do the right thing always for networking. I promise. networkmanager is a horribly broken piece of shit that per user reports never seems to actually work for people. You should not use software like that. -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
