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.
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

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