Hi. How I can get the those network settings? I compiled xbmc from git master branch but don't see network wired.

Hi,

take a look one post above yours:

I don't know if this is the same project, but looks functional (I didn't tried yet).

Cheers.

It is not the same project. The images are from work in progress standard network GUI components. If I understand it correctly projects like mine should be able to use these components and hook it up with the OS functionality. Or perhaps they will implement it all inside xbmc core, I am not sure.

You could probably grab it somewhere and compile it, but I am guessing this will not be an realistic option for you (or for me).

Your best option is probably to try my project until the above is available in stable.

My project is working but very basic. It is using the wicd daemon. This means that if wicd does not work there is zero chance that mine will work better. It is JUST a gui and a wrapper.

For the moment I don't do any development due to lack of qualified feedback. I guess thats my own fault for focusing on tools for non tech end users.

Besides that the need for further development is mostly improved GUI and that's not really my speciality + it will be made available in the futere as per above pic.
The second point is the very ugly workaround due lack of dbus support that will also be solved in the next version I think.

I can just assume it is not in Eden and to be honest I am not sure it needs to be in core xbmc.
I have switched ,y add-on from wicd to nm since that is what xbmcbuntu uses. It is not that hard but I do not have time to complete the work right now.

The wicd version have been downloaded 558 times for Eden so there is interest from users but not from any developers.

I have made an add-on for the network-manager which is included in xbmcbuntu.

It does not handle wired or 3/4G for the moment but if needed it can easility be extended.
