This issue does not appear to be present in Kubuntu Intrepid 8.10. The network manager in KDE 4.1 does not seem to support dialup connections at all!
KPPP can be found separately in the startup menu, and it prompts for a password when started, so I suppose it runs as root even though started from a regular user's K menu. However since bluetooth support seems to be completely broken in Intrepid I can't actually test PPP. Since KDE 3 I guess is not really being developed anymore, this issue could be changed into a feature request for KDE 4, to include this feature and make it work correctly. -- KNetworkManager dialup menu expands to thin empty box https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211932 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to knetworkmanager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
