I had this bug, and I've resolved it (at least for me). I'm using Kubuntu Intrepid with Proposed updates on a Acer Travelmate 520 with a Linksys Broadcom bcm43 PCMCIA wireless card.
This setup worked fine under Hardy, but I suffered from this bug after upgrade to Intrepid. A comment above suggested I use nm-applet as a workaround replacement for knetworkmanager. In order to avoid I conflict, I thought it best to apt-get remove knetworkmanager prior to installing nm-applet. But apt-get reported that knetworkmanger was _NOT_ installed (!?). So I ran 'apt-get install knetworkmanager' which apt-get reported as installing normally, rebooted, and now it's connecting working fine... -- knetworkmanager will no longer connect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259278 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
