Re: Network manager and Debian sid
Hi, Michael Biebl has done great job preparing NM for Debian. Here is his private repository: http://debs.michaelbiebl.de/network-manager/ BR, Hristo On Mon, 12 May 2008 12:05:21 +0200 Marco [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks guys for your work!!

I now use the keyfile plugin under debian and the new PolicyKit rules to manage the system-connections.

Re: Network manager and Debian sid
I didnt know thanks for the info. Availability of up to date debian packages is another point in favour of NM 0.7. Marco ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
