It's also possible to mark the device as unmanaged: http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/SystemSettings That's a good solution if the interface needs to be used occasionally for things like sniffing or driver testing. It would be a great if the future versions of NetworkManager allowed users to select (in GUI) which interfaces are used. Using all possible interfaces in not always the best solution. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
