#1 - wireless connections via network manager: In gnome, I can connect to the secure wireless networks in my house, but with kde network manager I can't connect to either of them. The gnome applet allows me to choose all the correct parameters, while the kde applet allows fewer options, and does not allow me to enter e.g. the correct the key type as in gnome. If only the kde network manager applet provided all the functionality of the gnome one, we'd be set.
There's not a lot to go on here. Speaking as one of the knetworkmanager authors, I thought we had parity with nm-applet. We need to know exactly which options are missing, for which type of wireless encryption/authentioncation, and what the network hardware in the dv6000 actually is. Please report these in a bug at bugzilla.novell.com.
#3 - display problems - Despite the fact that this is an intel 945 graphics chipset with 100% FOSS drivers, I can't get anything more than 1024x768 resolution, although it's capable of 1440x900. Any attempt to set a higher resolution than 1024x768 gets a corrupted xmd screen, and I have to fall back to the basic 1024x768 to get up and running again.
Sounds like you need to use 915resolution to patch the video bios so that it reports that it's capable of 1440x900. There's plenty of info on the web on how this works, and the readme in our 915resolution package (rpm -ql 915resolution) is quite helpful, but note that we now provide /etc/sysconfig/videobios where you can add the right parameters so that 915resolution is run on boot.
