I can well believe that NM helps you (though only a tiny bit, as far as I can see). I have absolutely no objection to NM being available, in fact I am strongly in favour of that. But I don't think it should become a standard part of Fedora, for reasons that I have outlined several times - it does not work with some devices which work without NM under Fedora, and if there is a problem with WiFi you have to work out what NM is doing, as well as all the other bits of WiFi. I'm pretty sure 90% of people with laptops either use WiFi exclusively, or else have the laptop permanently plugged into ethernet (in other words, they are using the laptop as a desktop). If I'm right then 90% of the effort should go into making WiFi work as well and as simply as possible under Fedora. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
