Hello, two days ago I updated my FC13 x86_64 from Jul 28 08:52:35 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.1-1.fc13.x86_64 to Aug 28 16:20:47 Updated: 1:NetworkManager-gnome-0.8.1-4.git20100817.fc13.x86_64
and now I'm noticing I'm not able to disable wireless any more. My nm-applet process is active gcecchi 2306 2167 0 07:46 ? 00:00:00 nm-applet --sm-disable
and I see the double-monitor icon, but usually I right-clicked on nm-applet window and checked out the "enable wireless" option. Now I see that the first two lines are enabled but greyed out.... Is this expected behaviour from update? I don't see a reference inside the rpm changelog...
I remember some past threads (probably in FC11 time...) where it was requested to keep wireless state as last session. It worked for some time but then nm-applet came back to be always enabled, so that I have to manually disable each time I didn't need it... any news on this? Was this "remembering last state for wireless on next reboot" feature abandoned, or do I have to open a bug?
BTW: I wanted to make a screenshot but if I right click and then press the stamp button I do not have the "save screenshot" pop-up... any way to do it (without a digicamera.. ;-)
Thanks, Gianluca

Find a program that lets you taked a timed screenshot. You trigger it, and it takes a shot a few seconds later, giving you a chance to set up what you want taken. It's been a while since I did that, but I think the Gimp has the feature.

Just hitting the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard should do it for you. It does for me, anyway. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, C2 Hosting ricks@nerd.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Lottery: A tax on people who are bad at math. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
I have a somewhat similar "problem" with a wired ADSL connection. I used to disable the connection by right clicking the icon and unclicking "Enable connection". Now "Enable connection" is checked and grayed out. It's impossible to disable the connection by unchecking. BUT, it you left click and choose disconnect, it disconnects. You then click "System eth0" to connect.
So, it seems to work but I never saw any advice about this change.

Can you check if after this disconnect and reconnect - if right clicking still shows the buttons grayed out ?
