I installed 12.1RC1/KDE from live-cd on my old ibm-laptop t23 with Pentium III and 768MB RAM.
So far stable and good working.
Problem is the NetworkManager; I use an UMTS-Stick to connect to internet. The stick will be recognized and installed with “manage connections” after left-click to the telefon-icon in the task-list and is ready for use. The thing is, after having no traffic for around 10 minutes, the connection will be interrupted, the telefon-icon changes to a red X. Left-Click on it shows no more entrance for Mobile Broadband.
The only possibility to make it work again is a to take off the stick from the system and connect it again with the system, then the entrance for Mobile Broadband is there again and available to connect
Thank you Henk, i tried to edit the title of my first post, but this was not possible,so I send it oncemore…
One more stuff with networkmanager: I marked “automatic connection”, this works fine in opensuse11.3; by booting the system, the modem will be at start connected.
This doesn´ t work in 12.1RC1, even marked in “managing connections”
I´ m running my systems with opensuse since 10.1, at this time I used kinternet to dial in, even a little problematic.
Since 11.1 I use networkmanager, actually the networkmanager-plasmoid, , has it gone worse?
