Or an absolutely horrible UI, no helper for vpns, auto-reconnection not working after a connection loss (works at boot, fortunately), randomly taking 30 seconds to shutdown, and not able to connect to WPA enterprise. And this is not just years-old hearsay, like most complains about NM, it's first-hand experience with the package currently in wheezy/unstable. I could file bugs, but I have so many problems that I'm better off switching to NM. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
