After updating (now: uname -a: Linux cy810 2.6.27-4-generic #1 SMP Wed
Sep 24 01:30:51 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux) I can now connect to the wlan;
it actually seems to be doing it faster than before. But the script may
not be complete:

first, the wlan access key is asked every time I start the computer,
although KWallet is available. It does not even ask about storing the
key. This is a bit cumbersome.

second, I now have two icons in the system tray, the old one from
KNetworkmanager, and the new one from the NetworkManagerApplet. Did the
script forget to delete the old one, or is KNetworkmanager still needed?
As before I can see all wlan networks in KNetworkmanager, but cannot
connect to them. Only the applet allows connections. Once it is
connected, the KNetworkmanager icon changes to the staircase icon
showing the signal strength, just as the applet icon does. A bit
confusing.

Lastly, since in fiddling with this I had manually initiated some
downloads of drivers and such, I cannot tell if the script does the
whole thing properly. If you like, I can try it out if you tell me how
to reset this thing to start condition.
