I've got no problems at all with KNetworkManager (in the default
KDE4.6).  The laptop uses the Linux ath9k WiFi driver, and works fine.
 I can sleep the laptop (close the lid or sleep with the Fn key
combination) and when it wakes up, the WiFi connection is ready and
active within a second or two of the display coming on.

Configuring VPNs is easy and they work fine as well.

Basically, I've had zero issues running 11.4/KDE4 on the laptop.
