The default network manager included with the x11-sato packagegroup is connman. It cannot coexist with ifup and /etc/network/interfaces. For connman to work properly we would require: - To modify netbase to leave an interfaces file with only the loopback interface for graphical images. - To compile the wpa_supplicant with dbus support and to leave connman the task of starting it without a configuration file but with the dbus API (-u) - We would need a way to run pre up scripts for all interfaces, so that the wired interfaces can set the mac addresses passed by uboot and the wireless interfaces can use the appropriate launch scripts. Currently connman has no way to launch scripts before bringing an interface up. It could be done with udev, but reportedly this does not work well because sometimes connman brings the interface up before the udev rule is run. It may be that future versions of connman fix this, for example by providing a command line tool. For the moment it is easier to have no graphical network manager. That way both del-image types share the network settings. In the future we may want to revisit the need for a graphical network manager.
