2007-06-19 Thread (``-_-´´) -- Fernando
Today a I got a few updates, and in them, there was an update for the NetworkManager.

Also I use a VPN via wifi on my University, and without the NM its pretty difficult to

Hya. Sarah I know all that. And I've lucky enough for the rest to keep working so fine. I did already been testing feisty since herd 2. I did the upgrade for gutsy because of the support for the new Xorg 1.3 to see if finally I could use my SVideo output. On 6/19/07, Sarah Hobbs <[EMAIL PROTECTED
