Hi Patrick, Thanks for the reply. >> I read here ( http://www.kdedevelopers.org/node/3462 ) that KDE 4.1's >> getting a plasmoid front-end to NetworkManager (which doesn't seem to >> be in 'updates-testing' yet). > > The Gnome nm-applet works fine under KDE. > So I tried that, specifically I did a: [bailey@homer:~]$ sudo yum install NetworkManager-gnome ...which pulled in 'gnome-panel' and 'gnome-panel-libs'. However, when I tried to start 'nm-applet', I got the following error: [bailey@homer:~]$ nm-applet ** (nm-applet:6268): WARNING **: <WARN> applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service. Message: 'Connection ":1.344" is not allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerUserSettings" due to security policies in the configuration file' (nm-applet:6268): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed ...same thing happened when I tried it as 'sudo' (also, when I restarted both 'network' and 'NetworkManager' services). Is this a dbus problem or some kind of PolicyKit thing? > The community wisdom around here is that you should choose between > system-config-network and NM, but don't try to mix them as they don't > get on, i.e. disable one or the other.

Gotcha, thanks for the heads-up. > poc --Mike -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
