You should execute knetworkmanager manually or KDE could execute 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.

If you do not want to fix YaST to check which user is logged in and start knetworkmanager/nm-applet for them, you should at least add a notification that the user has to do it on his own. Without the notification the user does not have any client to connect to e.g. wifi and wonders what he should do after switching to networkmanager in YaST. He might guess that he has to restart, as in MS Windows, to make things work, but to rely on that is certainly not the best solution possible. So expected behaviour would be at the least: Notify the user that he has to start knetworkmanager/nm-applet including the steps necessary to do so, i.e. ALT+F2 + typing knetworkmanager ind KDE. Not sure about Gnome. -- 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.
