Hello Henning.
I have no idea what an e/n/i is. Am one of those unfortunates
that fixes a motor, removes the worn part, takes it to a spare
parts seller and shows them, because I have no idea what they
are called. Brings home the new one and fixes the motor.
I left school at 14 years of age. Am old now and memory is not all that
good. Googled e/n/i can't discover what it means.
I have tried network manager about 15 years or more, ago. Didn't like
it and never touched it again. Then for a short, full of problems time,
the other one as well. Don't recall its name. Dropped that as well.
Anyway, I haven't had the wpa-supplicant problem again, so maybe it was
just a momentary glitch. I am always bemused by errors on my computer,
because I think that something which is all about mathematics should
just work. 2 and 2 can only make 4, not 5, not 6 or anything else? I
obviously don't understand the coding in the programs where the human
error must enter the works.
So thanks for your help, but I can't complete what you ask.
Just have to get on.
Charlie
