[opensuse-factory] knetworkmanager in Factory (and maybe GM): no WEP shared key
Hi, Note https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=391914 - knetworkmanager in current Factory (and probably even 11.0 GM) has no option to configure the WEP "shared key" mode. If you need to use a WLAN with a shared key, you can quit knetworkmanager and launch nm-applet instead (given you have it installed), which allows the right configureation. Let's hope knetworkmanager will gain support for this in an online-update (and 11.1-targeted Factory).

Where can I find nm-applet, please?

Noted, Helmut and I are having a hack session on knm today where we'll look at this, and we'll have an online update out ASAP.

If you need someone to test KNetworkmanager changes please do not
hesitate to contact me.
Will this then be the KDE4.x version?
