Package: network-manager-kde Version: 1:0.9~svn1141976-1 Severity: normal
Hello, NOTE: I suspect that the bug 578101 "network-manager-kde: eduroam style networks are not working with knetworkmanager (but with nm-applet)" is heavily related to this bug. I have (kind of) the same problem, both in network-manager-kde, and plasma-widget-networkmanagement (which I understand is the src for network-manager-kde, so they should be the "same"). For me it does work to switch to nm-applet (available in network-manager-gnome). With nm-applet the connection is established reasonably fast. However, knetworkmanager seems to be configuring the interface for a long time and then shows me the authentication dialog for WPA2/Enterprise. I tried the following procedure: * Reboot. * Start nm-applet and let it connect to the wireless network, eduroam. [nm-applet connects without any problem.] * Kill nm-applet. * Immediately start knetworkmanager and let it connect to the wireless network, eduroam. [Now, knetworkmanager is able to connect to the wireless network, eduroam, reasonably fast. Thus it seems like knetworkmanager is able to use the configuration applied by nm-applet, so the problem AFAICS lies in the configuration of the interface stage.] * Reboot. * Start knetworkmanager and let it connect to the wireless network, eduroam. [Now, knetworkmanager is not able to connect to the wireless network, eduroam.] * Kill knetworkmanager. * Start nm-applet. [nm-applet now tries to connect to eduroam. It is unsuccessful and shows me the "Authentication required by wireless network"-dialog. If I just press Connect, nm-applet is still unable to connect and again shows me the dialog. If I change the PEAP version to 1 (see below for my actual settings - PEAP version: 0) and press Connect, nm-applet will again show me the dialog. I then change back to the correct setting and press Connect. nm-applet is now able to connect without any problem.] * Repeating bullets 3-4 above again makes knetworkmanager connect to eduroam without any problem. Conclusion: To me it seems like the problem lies in how the interface is getting configured.
