It pretty means exactly what it says. You have told it to disable the init script but the init script LSB header in the script says that it should be enabled in those run levels. Look at the top of the script to see what the script defines. less /etc/init.d/network-manager These warnings are produced whenever the current configuration is different from what is defined in the LSB header. Since you are manually disabling it then I would ignore the message. As to your original: I usually purge network-manager and install wicd. I think in your previous case wicd didn't start and couldn't run because network-manager was still running and had the interfaces busy. Bob
