Id like to make my gentoo box stop starting net.eth0 on boot, as this is now managed by networkmanager...
I tired
Code:

rc-update del net.eth0

and it still trys to start the device....
also, can I have it start wireless at boot before login and yet still be able to use networkmanager? if so can you give me directions? thanks.

I think udev will bring up network interfaces it detects, check your bootlog, to see if that is the case.

That's not the complete command. Try "rc-update del net.eth0 default" (or whatever runlevel net.eth0 is in).

/edit: If that doesn't work, udev is playing tricks on you, as mortagon suggested. You can explicitly tell udev to not start net.eth0 by adding the following line to your /etc/conf.d/rc (or /etc/rc.conf if you already use baselayout-2):

Code:
rc_plug_services="!net.eth0"

AFAIK rc-update del net.eth0 will remove net.eth0 from all runlevels, while rc-update del net.eth0 default will remove it only from default.

@mortagon: you're right, sorry about that!

Nothing to be sorry about.

that works! but is it possible to get wireless to start on boot *before* i start KDE? [and then let knetworkmanager take over?]
