I apologize upfront if I missed something but - I noticed since applying the 4.2 updates from the test repository that knetworkmanager no longer works for me to connect to wireless. Wired networks appear to work fine. The only way I've seen to get around this is to install NetworkManager-gnome. When this is installed knetworkmanager works fine (but isn't really needed since NetworkManager-gnome is installed.... duh...).
I did some searching and found: http://www.osnews.com/story/20758/KDE_4_2_Progress_New_NetworkManager_Plasmo...
which looks like the old knetworkmanager is on the way out (or with 4.2 appears already gone... ;-) )
The new plasmoid isn't going to be distributed until 4.3 but apparently is available to test with now.
What's the current direction on this? Use NetworkManager-gnome until 4.3, make the plasmoid available to use or fix the old knetworkmanager?
That said, so far I'm really pleased with 4.2 - things appear to be working fine!

Confirmed. Last night's update brought me
Name : NetworkManager Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.7.0 Vendor: Fedora Project Release : 2.git20090207.fc10 Build Date: Sat 07 Feb 2009 02:39:06 PM GMT Install Date: Tue 10 Feb 2009 02:39:24 PM GMT Build Host: x86-6.fedora.phx.redhat.com Group : System Environment/Base Source RPM: NetworkManager-0.7.0-2.git20090207.fc10.src.rpm
Before that I had been using knetworkmanager with NetworkManager-gnome uninstalled. This morning I could get no connection. Installing NetworkManager-gnome connected immediately after a reboot.

Please file a bugreport, preferably against NetworkManager if you suspect its recent update broke the wireless networking for networkmanager-kde

Done - #485097. Gerald, please add your comments.

Thanks Anne, will do so later today. What do you folks think about the new plasmoid? Any chance we could get that into a repo to play with? Looks like it will be the replacement to knetworkmanager.

I built the SRPM and can make a connection to my wireless network. Haven't tried any other access points yet, but so far so good.

This find makes me mad.
Where does KDE get off breaking stuff that works ? Fedora is supposed to be production quality. KDE releases are supposed to be production quality.
I think someone needs to put their foot down on some of this stuff.

Please re-read the thread. *KDE* didn't break anything, a NetworkManager update induced this.
That said, knetworkmanager has always been fragile, with... let's say a less-than-responsive upstream.
