The first one is that your AP does not accept the connection request (for whatever reason). I guess there is a message "asking for new secrets" in /var/log/NetworkManager. The second problem is a bug in the plasmoid. When the connection was not accepted and NetworkManager asks for a new key, the plasmoid only shows "Waiting for authorization" but does not open a new pop-up window to enter a new password. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
