So lets do some comparison here.
Sure, though I made that remark to refute the idea that KDE4 is the problem.
Do you know what application Mandriva
is using to get you connected?
wpa_supplicant
What is the kernel level,
2.6.27.4-desktop-2mnb
and what is
the output of modinfo of the module for your wireless card?
Remember that this is a different laptop. Wifi here is ipw2200
modinfo ipw2200

I could get similar info from the EeePC, if it would help to compare.
