No static ip address after upgrading to 24.01.1

[stefan]

I upgraded from GhostBSD 23.10.1 to 24.01.1 via update-station.

On GhostBSD 23.10.1 I configured a static ip address on my lan card and it always worked very well.

After the upgrade to 24.01.1 i can't assign a static ip address anymore. The lan card only works when I use
DHCP. The rc.conf file wasn't changed from 23.10.1 to 24.01.1

Anyone experienced the same issue?

Also the background image doesn't appear on the login screen even after a reboot. I had to configure
/usr/local/etc/lightdm/slick-greeter.conf manually. The background file in the original slick-greeter.conf file
doesn't exist in /usr/local/share/backgrounds/ghostbsd/

I activated my 23.10.1 backup-bootenvironment and there everything works well. Hopefully I will be able
to upgrade to 24.01.1 in the future ...

Best regards
Stefan

I experienced the same issue on a FreeBSD 14.0 RELEASE system. The networkmgr seems to be the problem. After uninstalling networkmgr everything works as expected.

I will try this on GhostBSD 2024.01.1 this evening.

@stefan, could you make a ticket on GitHub to make sure that issue gets looked at?

The slick-greeter.conf missing is a known issue.
