I would like to test this more, but my system is busy running "guix system reconfigure", and it doesn't look like it'll finish any time soon. Shame on me for running "guix pull" first! Heh. Anyway, I will test this and get back to you before the end of the weekend. I don't think "type the root password" is a great work-around, since on my machines, I prefer not to give root a password, and rely on sudo instead. Network Manager ought to be able to automatically connect to a wireless network; there must be a reason why the authentication (for checking the "automatically connect" box) is not working, but I don't know what it is yet. =2D-=20 Chris --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEy/WXVcvn5+/vGD+x3UCaFdgiRp0FAlhKVVMACgkQ3UCaFdgi Rp3IBA//eTgpORneGFYAU2Sp2h52ehjwtNFIgeJkP0KHNWdpN4mUPGmt8DJzRSVB rm1CGF/H3mdWRbiU3+8XFVzrkL20hecR3e02xCuWFLwa0bf0Q8HFVGb+ouYEhiqL pzcz9okg7QPCrsJvjTP6oKn5ilqUWulHu7w8v0mJvJaMCnzzaayyJXWdKTkqDz6l TK6iDSmQn9tF60FUolvkBu1vD9+YL4LR5jJSQvSaKxT9uqASfdWqpLj+pUHl2Ji4 xcz6/g6AgXWQJzD2h19+eKH1KlY31tJ1SFWV1ZizkBFRn+pKTaHdqm5i0SUuC0tC LNXWuCkA1Xl6bR646UJ70eu2i06xooPW4Vh+bbu+Mw/FW6jjpKx+4qHy8Vl2eF6f dTwuFIOx+2Fm/1Pt8WdSa4fc0bdc2UjcpvVThZHcx6gVR8JMqIqoVNKEK71Qi9fm BlmJV4OnGDoim+sA6+k7TDAnqUIkmSc74SL4ymEcnA0binDbCuXvOmEYaMDOUhL9 +dJ0dDlMA9ePfGEwPesQh4beRJrBHa3dKEqZ0vh1WEbtBvurUBm3PK+XHzqyuR4+ PPXdONWYVg+40r1L/Qk4iskd+cILZTplsXR/7Xi541BTDykgMaCvdwLr3z4qM5O6 F2yEsQ7WVBNkjcyPOmPxSvKVT5Yth5iclFCcGn09goTrrpJmzGw= =2Evt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
