On advice in an earlier thread, it was suggested that ifconfig was
interfering and that I had no use for it. That I should move it aside
so that it would not be found. I moved it to a dir I keep in root for
such things -- /root/MoveAsides.
That action did get NM reworking, but the service called 'network'
remains running apparently.
My problems are all those annoying little gnome issues I listed in my
original post. All of which seemed to have started when I turned NM off
then on again.
My main objective is to get my networking working properly with no extra
programs or processes hanging around. I want -- need -- to start poking
around my network setup to learn networking. I want to make sure that
there is a direct correlation between my poking and any network
breakdowns so I can trace back what I shouldn't have done.
