Thanks for the suggestion, which reminded me that I indeed chose
'wicked' on installation some years ago and kept that throughout the
releases.

I tried to change to Networkmanager in yast, but it immediately
complained it required some app or other (did not say exactly which) to
run properly - I do not run KDE or Gnome desktop :-/, and Yast said it
could not longer control the interface options (since Networkmanager did).

At that point I remembered *why* I had changed to wicked... and decided
that I do not want the original requested feature *that* much.

Thanks
R'
