Problem with NM and VMware

2009-01-16 Thread James Ward 
Hi,

I'm using the latest NM in Ubuntu Jaunty and having a problem related to
VMWare.  VMWare creates two network devices by default (vmnet1 &
vmnet8).  NM thinks that these are wired devices and that it needs to
manage.  So I get:

Wired Network vmnet1
 * Auto vmnet1


But these devices really shouldn't be managed by NM and this causes
routing problems because NM uses vmnet1 for my default route.

I used to deal with this problem by just removing "Auto vmnet1" and
"Auto vmnet1" every time my computer boots.  But now when I try to
remove those devices I get an error:

Removing connection failed: nm-settings.c.333 - Read-only connections
may not be deleted..


Any idea how I can deal with this problem?  Thanks!

-James

Thanks Dan.

Here is the output:

The light on my laptop indicating that the device is on, never turned on
using NM.  But if I do:
cu -l /dev/ttyACM0

AT+CFUN=1


Then the light does come on.

I have 0.7~~svn20081018t105859-0ubuntu2~nm4 from the PPA on Intrepid.

Thanks for your help.

WAN Ericsson F3507g

2008-11-05 Thread James Ward 
Hi,

I just recently upgraded to the Lenovo W500 laptop which has a built-in
Ericsson F2507g WAN card.  Unfortunately I can't get this new card to
work with NM because it needs to be turned on first.  There is a thread
about how to do this manually on Ubuntu:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=934013

My sim card doesn't require a password like the newer ones so this
should be pretty simple.  But I can't seem to make it work.  I'm using
the Ubuntu NM PPA.  Any ideas?

Thanks.
