You can still use any of the dialup connections that you used to have with system-config-network just like they always worked. NM has never supported bluetooth, the menu actually just did "ifup" / "ifdown" when you clicked that item, and simply was not integrated into NetworkManager in any way. wvdial hasn't left the distro, not sure where you're getting that. It's certainly present. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 136663 *** You are right, it was never integrated but it was listed in the NM. So not having that functionality is a regression. I couldn't find wvdial in the RHEL 5.3 Beta channel, but I noticed that the channel is missing all the packages that are part of the RHEL5 channel, including wvdial. Wrong assumption, no worries :-) |
