[Wired vs WiFi in rc-update]

I am installing Funtoo on my Lenovo ideapad flex 15 laptop.  The installation instructions say to run "rc-update add NetworkManager default" after emerging networkmanager. And for the most part I will be running on WiFi. But is it possible to have the system look first for a wired connection and then for wireless? What would be the best way to go about this?

 

Thanks.

[Can't install Network Manager]

A USE flag is a compilation option.

Default merge settings have consolekit compiled with policykit disabled.(USE policykit disabled)

Networkmanager requires consolekit be compiled with policykit enabled.(USE policykit enabled)

The configuration below compiles policykit with consolekit.(USE policykit enabled)

# mkdir -p /etc/portage/package.use
# echo ">=sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.6 policykit" >> /etc/portage/package.use/consolekit
# emerge -av networkmanager

Oh man thanks so much! I'm just installing Funtoo and ran into the very same problem as the OP. Apparently I didn't understand what the message means and how to deal with it.  But I do now.  Hopefully this is the worst problem I'll encounter, but I won't hold my breath ;)

 

Thanks again!
