I installed F9 on an old computer that only has 256M of RAM. I did a

you do a text mode install, gdm is apparently not installed. Anyway,
when I start up X, the NetworkManager is running but it doesn't enable
my wired connection. I've played around with the menus and put in the
MAC address but that had no effect. I'm sure I'm missing something
simple but I need a hint.
Try running system-config-network and configure your connection there
initially, and save. Just don't start the network service. Once it's
saved (you may need to reboot) you can try restarting/redoing NM to see
if it sees it then. You also need to check the "let NM control it" box
as well.
I don't know why but after doing system-config-network it works fine. I
didn't change anything but it works.
Thanks,
