</I>>><i> Hi Thomas
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> How can i be sure i use NM instead of drakxtools when configuring my
</I>>><i> wireless card ?
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> only place I see NM is when asked if i want my wireless card be
</I>>><i> managed by network manager!
</I>>><i> (my own translation from the top of my head)
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> thanks in advance for your time.

</I>><i> answering my own question.
</I>><i> I follow the MAGEIA QA procedure at
</I>><i> <A HREF="https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_procedure:Knetworkmanager">https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_procedure:Knetworkmanager</A>
</I>><i> and now it automagically reconnect after a reboot or a suspend/resume :-)
</I>><i> only drawback; i have to enter a passwd for kwallet :-(
</I>><i> so two questions:
</I>><i> - is there a way to store the password locally?
</I>Sorry for boring the list with my problem (write too soon)
found the setting (hidden in security) to store the wifi passwd locally.
Happy camper now
><i> - this is a default mga3a2 X86_64 installation so i hope for final
</I>><i> mga3 networkmanager
</I>><i> will be the default program?
