If I go to YaST, Network, and set it back to Traditional ifup, then network comes up immediately. I can then switch it back to NetworkManager, and network stays working, and I've got full access to all features of the NetworkManager until the next logout/reboot when I lose network again until I manually cycle it to Traditional and back to NetworkManager.
So.... any thoughts on solving this one? It's a minor inconvenience since I don't restart or logout often, but.... it's something I'd like to resolve if I can.
Not sure it if related, but do you have plasmoid-networkmanagement installed instead of KNetworkManager?
According to
<http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:KDE_upgrade>
plasmoid-networkmanagement should be used from KDE45 onwards, but I've done several installs of 11.4 and I always get KNetworkManager instead.
Not sure if it will help, but it might.
I double checked, and it's using the plasmoid instead of KNetwork manager - possibly because it was a clean install vs upgrade? I like the plasmoid (offers a LOT more information about your conenction) over the old KNetworkManager. I wonder... I'll have ot go poke the bug reports to see ifthere is a known issue with the plasmoid... oddly though, I'm using the same install on my laptop, and there the plasmoid is working fine to manage VPNs, wired NIC and WiFi.
No progress on this yet. I'm still having an issue with the Network Manager plasmoid - haven't tried switching back to the old KNetworkManager (I'd rather use the plasmoid). A second machine running the same basic 11.4/KDE4 install is not showing the same issue.... so I'm still stumped on this
Hmmmm.... I've reinstalled everything on a second computer - clean install from the 11.4 KDE LiveCD, and the NetworkManager plasmoid definitely does not work after boot (but will work if you manually cycle the network after startup) if you set to use NetworkManager instead of Traditional ifup. If I switch back to the old KNetworkManager, everything works as expected. I can open a bug report... any suggestions for what log files to include? Is no one else seeing this?
