Any particular reason you wouldn't use 0.7? 0.7 is a lot more flexible and probably more suited for embedded systems where you likely want more control over the network configuration. Also, are you planning on just using the NM daemon, or do you want to use the GNOME applet too? > Can anyone give me some inputs about configuration and dependencies when > trying to do so? What do I specify for --with-distro in configuration? You could create your own distro target. It mainly affects what backend is used for some IP configuration (see src/backends/*) and not much else. On 0.7 the distro-specific backends are pretty much empty because we've been able to generalize most of it, so you wouldn't have to do much work on 0.7. If you're just using NetworkManager, then you'll need bits like libnl, glib2, and dbus-glib. The configure script will tell you if you're missing anything. I could go into more details about the dependencies, but that would depend on whether you'd like to use 0.6.6 or 0.7-pre. dan > Thanks and regards > > -Nitin > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com > _______________________________________________ > NetworkManager-list mailing list > NetworkManager-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
