OK, I have good news and bad:
I built another drive (SATA, USB connected) and installed a pristine 11.1 on
it. Running KDE4 only (although by default, some kde3 apps, like
knetworkmanager, were installed).
The issue of "Roam" items in /var/log/NetworkManager does not exist. While I
have not yet changed wpa_supplicant to use -dddt, so far it looks better.
Note that I do still have (every minute or so) moments when the network "burps"
and I have to wait a moment before a web page will load, or a download will
start. Very noticeable when doing zypper installs from cli - often the initial
attempt to connect to the source will fail, but re-issuing the command works.
I will get back to you this evening with results from -dddt on wpa_supplicant.
Initial complaint regarding "das blinken lights" still exists. Bloody annoying!
I want the old light style back! Blink for initial connection, then stay solid
unless you actually LOSE connection and need to re-connect.
On a side note, KDE 4.2 (updated from the KDE repo) appears a little more solid
than 4.1, but is still a pain to configure, and only God knows what they were
thinking with that NetworkManager "widget" instead of knetworkmanager. Solid
thinking on openSuSE's part to default to kde3 networkmanager programs even for
a KDE4 install. Good job guys. :-)
