Interesting idea. I'm starting to really dislike NetworkManager (BTW I use KDE, if it matters). Maybe it's useful for laptop users but as far as I can see it just gets in the way, plus it has virtually no user-level documentation and the website reads like a commercial. Right now my NM icon is showing me as disconnected, when in fact I am connected. Clicking on the damn thing makes no difference and I can find nothing related to NetworkManager in gconf. If this is in fact related to the Evo offline problem my reaction is WTF! Isn't this stuff supposed to get easier rather than harder? Thanks for the suggestion. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
