Description Teseu 2010-01-19 05:44:44 UTC

Description of problem:
The networkmanager isn't used to this conection (modem 3G) and that makes Yumex blind to my conection. All repos are locked in disable position and I can't use it.
Yum works just fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.9.4

How reproducible:
Connect with a 3G without using the networkmanager.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a 3G modem that contains a gui for Linux
2. Open the conection, manking sure the networkmanager shows no net
3. Try to enable any repo outside local enviroment
  
Actual results:
All repos disabled

Expected results:
Manual override to this automatic disable.

Additional info:
The context menu has some options, but not some "force enable" or something like that.

I can see you problem and i will add an option to disable e network connection check.

Comment 2 Tim Lauridsen 2010-01-22 09:43:34 UTC

Added a '--disable_netcheck' command line option and added a disable_netcheck=0/1 into /etc/yumex.conf to disable the check permanently. 

Will be available in next release of yumex

Comment 6 teseu 2010-06-14 23:47:11 UTC

In Fedora 13, if I add the option "disable_netcheck" to /etc/yumex.conf, the problem still persist, but with yumex opened, I choose in preferences, tab advanced, check box "Disable startup network check", it works.
All repositories I selected showed theirs packages.

Comment 7 Tim Lauridsen 2010-06-15 06:58:01 UTC

you have to edit .yumex.conf in you home directory and not /etc/yumex.conf
