--- Comment #49 from Lamarque V. Souza <lamar...@kde.org> ---
Ok, we figured out what is wrong here:

. ntrack and wicd support are already enabled. So I was wrong in comment #46.

. NetworkManager support is only compiled in if NetworkManager's headers are
installed and that is probably the Arch's problem. According to this
http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/kdebase
you are compiling kde programs without NetworkManager support. Because of that
ony ntrack support is functional and since ntrack has this bug that never sends
the online signal the system is set to offline for ever.

. all KDE programs (or at least they should) treat system as online in unknown
state, so if you set ntrack state to 0 (unknown) the programs start to work.

. Since Wicd backend is always enabled the Wicd status overrides the ntrack
status and everything works.

So, please compile kde-runtime with NetworkManager support and everything
should work even with ntrack support enabled. You can re-enable ntrack support
once they fix their problem. 

I just do not know how to close this bug, it's both upstream (ntrack) and
downstream (Arch) :-)
