If I rejected to open KWallet the wireless connection will be not reached, although KNetworkManager had the key. If I create a new user account or tried to connect to a new wireless network, and I rejected that my key were stored by KWallet, the connection will be not reached. But If after that I chosen the newly setup connection I will be able to confirm that KNetworkManager has the key in the "key" field. Checking "Show the key" will show it, and, also, the key will be fine. But KNetworkManager wil not be able to use it. That seems like KWallet intermediates/interferes the process of connecting itself, and I think it is not all right.

What I have not tried yet: What if I open the connection manager, go to `Other' and choose not to use KWallet there before trying to connect to any wireless network? If that works, this is likely to be some kind of "forking" problem, or lack of concurrency: After having entered the key, KNetworkManager tries to save it to the wallet and waits for that to return successfully rather than passing the key to wpa_supplicant (or wherever it is suppoed to go) concurrently and ignoring the "save status". Might be an upstream issue. -- 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.

The user must to re-login. In 11.4 Final x86_64 + Updates I have found that if the user refuses to introduce his password when logins, due to KNetworkManager finds the wireless network the user previously indicated to connect to always, KNetworkManager further will not be able to connect to the network (even after launching KWallet, which seldom does not run). The user has to restart the session (or relogin) and in this second time should introduce the password and connect then. -- 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.

If the issue persists with 12.1, i.e. the plasmoid-networkmanagement, please report it upstream since it is not opensuse-specific. http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_KDE#Before_you_report_bugs -- 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.
