From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Galeon/1.3.14 Description of problem: Although it is possible to set up and it is actually very useful to be able to work using wifi and when needing the higher speed, just connect the network-cable and see it using 100Mbit or 1Gbit automatically. The problem is that for making it work, you should configure the wireless interface first prior to bringing the bonding interface up and enslaving them, which is not possible using the normal scripts from initscripts. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-7.55.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. . 2. 3. Additional info:
Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
Closing bugs on older, no longer supported, releases. Apologies for any lack of response. Realistically, I don't see adding this function in the future; it requires operating on a bridged wireless/wired network in the first place, which normally isn't the case.
