This all misses the point. I've turned NM off and killed everything I
can think of yet wlan0 keeps getting activated. How do I stop it from
screwing up my static network connection? nm-applet USED TO HAVE a
button for a wired network under Fedora 6 and my wireless and wired
connections worked together without any problem. Under Fedora 8, the
wired connection disappeared, reappeared briefly, and now is gone again.
Why are we going backwards?
