NOEXIST

Kubuntu 9.04, KDE 4.x(<--)

I guess the bottom line is KDE 4 isn't quite there yet. As (K?)ubuntu
doesn't offer anything beyond vanilla in terms of system config, Kubuntu
9.04 is sort of also not quite there yet and a few years behind in
places.

There is a systemsettings tool, but the network part is borked and
totally useless.

No, not nuts, some network settings are only really useful under user
control, but that's after root has marked them as such (typically for
wireless, but not eth0).
