           Summary: The KDE3 knetworkmanager cannot connect to wireless
                    networks
           Product: openSUSE 11.1
           Version: Beta 5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: KDE3
        AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@xxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: nice@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

          Found By: ---


Sadly I have to use the old knetworkmanager, because the new one does not
support WPA-enterprise, which I use every day. However, I observed that,
beginning wih openSUSE 11.0, the KDE3 knetworkmanager is not willing to connect
to wireless networks after the installation. I have to add and remove
connection profiles, restart, reboot etc. to make it finally working. I've just
installed openSUSE 11.1-Beta5, so it doesn't work now. It sees the AP-s, but
when I click on a wireless network, simly nothing happens.

Additionally, when I save a WPA-ENTERPRISE PEAP-MSCHAPv2 profile and then
reopen it, I cannot set the phase2 authentication to MSCHAPv2. In fact I cannot
set it to anything. Knetworkmanager seems to have forgotten about MSCHAPv2 (and
about MD5 too), it simply does not offer any phase2 metods, only after changing
the phase1 method to something different from PEAP, and then back to PEAP.
However, after saving this profile, and then reopening, phase2 methods get lost
again.

I will attach two knetworkmanagerrc files. One with a WPA-Enterprise profile
(with an altered password, of course), and one with an open network. knetwork
manager sipmply ignores my command to connect using any of them.
