  • HP Mini 210
  • Fedora 15 Latest updates

In the terminal when I do the following:

nm-connection-editor

I get the following:

command not found

Where is the nm-connection-editor?

nm-connection-editor was part of the network-manager-applet package. GNOME 3 Shell has the network icon built in, so the applet package was removed from dependencies. You can still install it manually, though – the old applet should then be disabled via gnome-session-properties.

Also, it might be good to file a Fedora bug report, as the new GNOME "Network" settings panel won't work properly without nm-connection-editor.

  • Try "NetworkManager-gnome". Aug 20, 2011 at 18:33
  • Hello, Yes, I was able to install NetworkManager-gome and use the nm-connection-editor. However, one question. I am using Fedora 15 gnome 3.0.1. What is the difference between 'System Settings | Network' (I normally click this to edit my connections) and NetworkManager-gnome? Thanks

    They both access the same NetworkManager settings. In fact, when you click on "Options..." in the System Settings page, you will launch the same nm-connection-editor from NetworkManager-gnome. Aug 21, 2011 at 10:25
