[SOLVED] Disable service network-manager and knetworkmanager

[walto]

I have problemes connecting to my wireless network. I use a hidden network and wpa encryption. knetworkmanager is restarting after some minutes and associates again with the router. This causes the wireless connection to go down. Sometimes knetworkmanager crashes.

I added the credentials to /etc/networking/interfaces. After killing knetworkmanager and stopping network-manager with

stop network-manager

I started

start networking

which works fine.

How can I use only /etc/networking/interfaces instead of network-manager and knetworkmanager without manually disabling them?

Thanks

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
The solution I found was:

/etc/network/interfaces:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ap-scan 1
wpa-scan-ssid 1
wpa-ssid MYSSID
wpa-psk MYPSKPASSPHRASE

and removing network-manager:

sudo apt-get remove network-manager

this also removes knetworkmanager.

Now my network starts at boot without any interference with other services.
