(WPA Supplicant) cannot be enabled at the same time: you can still connect
to the wireless networks using NetworkManager.
(WPA Supplicant) can be used together if desired. To do this you need to instruct
NetworkManager to ignore those interfaces like:
<programlisting>
<xref linkend="opt-networking.networkmanager.unmanaged"/> = [
"*" "except:type:wwan" "except:type:gsm"
];
</programlisting>
