Description Jan Engelhardt 2005-09-10 10:29:00 UTC 
Running `yast2 network` asks me multiple times if I would like to detect network
cards now. Multiple, not once.
Comment 1 Andreas Jaeger 2005-09-10 13:41:10 UTC 
I cannot reproduce this.  Please provide the YaST logfiles.

Comment 4 Martin Vidner 2005-09-12 22:34:07 UTC 
One thing is that you are asked multiple times: if I have understod the code 
properly, it is two times, right? If not, please tell me when exactly it 
happens.

The other thing is that you are asked at all. Yast should do it when linuxrc 
tells it so by placing Manual: 1 in /etc/install inf. But it also checks the 
kernel command line /proc/cmdline for "manual". Do you have either of these 
enabled?
Comment 5 Jan Engelhardt 2006-02-25 15:24:35 UTC 
Seems fixed.

BTW, the "traditional method with ifup" has changed to the "semi-traditional method with ifplugd" -- how can I change that back to ifup-only?
Comment 6 Jan Engelhardt 2006-02-25 15:26:55 UTC 
s/seems/is/. I have not seen it at all (neither installation nor post-setup yast2). Looks good.
Comment 7 Martin Vidner 2006-03-09 14:26:05 UTC 
Ok, marking as fixed.

about disabling ifplugd: 
Edit the network card,
Advanced, Detailed Settings, (or the General tab in 10.1)
Device Activation: At Boot Time

or vi /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-* and change STARTMODE to "auto".
