Re: [Banshee-List] "Cannot search for CD metadata"

["Christopher S. Jones" <chris userzero com>]

Thanks for the tip.  I've seen mention of network-manager in this regard 
but am having some problems conceptually understanding its relationship 
to Banshee (other than Banshee uses it to find Net connection).  I'm 
using a static IP on my desktop.  Is there a way to inform 
network-manager of my tcp/ip info so that Banshee can use it to connect 
to the Net?

Many Thanks,

Chris
