However it seems that you have a connection with an empty connection name, is this the case? Can you attach a zip of the contents of ~/.kde4/share/apps/networkmanagement/connections and ~/.kde4/share/config/networkmanagementrc ? (no passwords are stored there if you are using KWallet, otherwise you should sanitise the files if the passwords are important). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

At this point knetworkmanager seems to be behaving better. Without going back, I can't confirm if I'll see a "blank" network. I checked out the directory /home/jnelson/.kde4/share/apps/networkmanagement/connections/ and it's got entries in it that don't correspond to anything in the knetworkmanager "Manage Connections" interface. In fact, I went and deleted everything using that interface, and I still have 3 files in connections/ - one is my auto wired connection (this is expected), and two are wireless connections. The first wireless connection is the cafe I was just at (but for which knetworkmanager seemed unable to "see") and the other is a network I haven't been at in months. Neither of the wireless connection files show up in the knetworkmanager "Manage Connections" interface. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can guarantee you that prior to yesterday, I hadn't ever touched those files. What I've done since then, however, is this: killall knetworkmanager remove the rc file and the connections/ files restart knetworkmanager punch in all my creds again and now it's working fine. However, IMO it shouldn't have gotten to that point, and it remains a *bit* fragile (although I still love it!). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
