Hi.
I don't get it to bring my Kubuntu 9.04 with KDE4.5 in the
WLAN-Network.
In KDE4 it works fine. Under KDE3.5, i tried it wirh the knetworkmanager. When i klick on
the
connection I add, nothing happen. I doesn't matterwhen i change the authorisation in the router to
WEP/WPA
or nothing.
Sorry for my bad english.

Hi Jochen,
Try Gnome's nm-applet instead. The old knetworkmanager tray icon is hopelessly broken.
Tim
Thank you very much! It worked great! And also thanks for your wonderfull work. Don't know how to have fun
under Ubuntu-Linux without KDE3.5 ;-)

Hi Jochen,
alternatively you can use wicd (http://wicd.sourceforge.net/) if you
want
to have a better configurability.

Hi Stefan.
the tool looks very nice. But i cant connect to my WPA2 Secured Network. No Matter what i choose
under Preferences -> General Settings -> WPA Supplicant Driver.
My WLAN controller is "Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11a/b/g (rev
02)" and i installed the driver with "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter"

Hi Jochen,
if your WLAN worked well with nm-applet then you don't have to install a new driver in order to get wicd running, I think.
The only "problem" of wicd I noticed is the lack of good WPA templates. In my special case I also had to write my own WPA template. If you know how your wpa_supplicant configuration has to look like, then it's easy to create a corresponding template for wicd.
Stefan
Thanks for your help. But i think i will stand by the gnome network manager. Worked without problems and im not really fit in this template writing things.
