NetworkManager-Gnome : How to get it working ?

I don’t know deep stuff about any DE.

I just thought that it would just work. Network Manager for gnome
doesn’t appear when I’m testing builds. It has never happened to me. I
want to use my WiFi and can’t get the Dialog. I don’t care that it
doesn’t look as pretty a Official OpenSUSE 13.1 so I just want the WiFi
working. please help :confused:

So to be clear I include the NetworkManager-Gnome package but don’t see
wireless buttons to set it. I tried getting to Network settings in “All
settings” tools but there’s a message when it loads : The system network
services are not compatible with this version

So I synced the repositories and building now.

I’m not sure what you are doing, so this might not be helpful.

I’m currently running factory. I logged into Gnome, went to the network
settings, and I got exactly the same error message (not compatible).

So I started Yast, and went to network settings with the Global options
tab. And there, I switched to using NetworkManager.

Once that was done, a connection icon appeared in the Gnome panel, and
the network settings actually looked as if they would work (I only have
a wired connection on that box).


-opensuse factory; KDE 4.13.80 (main desktop);
opensuse 13.1, KDE 4.11.5 (laptop);-

Thanks I’ll try that now. :slight_smile:
