However, judging by Fedora forums, (but this is hearsay--as another old
person disliking change, I remove it on everything, even laptops), it seems
to still sometimes cause problems. However, that's hearsay, and quite
possibly only causes problems for newcomers, I don't follow any of the
threads that closely.
It does seem that hand editing
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-whatever doesn't completely work
anymore--however, I can't confirm that, I've run into it at random times,
and one can get a card working properly with system-config-network-tui.
(On Fedora, not on CentOS-6.x--on CentOS, hand editing the file works as
expected)
