I'm unfortunately seeing the same kind of regression problems with the NM plasma widget. My setup is as follows: * EeePC netbook 901Go with integrated Huawei Technologies E620 USB Modem. * Kubuntu 9.10 with 2.6.31-17-generic kernel. * plasma-widget-networkmanagement 0.9~sn1029768+ag1-0ubuntu1 * network-manager 0.8~rc1-0ubuntu1~nmt1~karmic * KDE 4.3.85
The modem is properly detected by the kernel and the NM plasma widget shows the phone symbol (both task bar as well as in the widget menu). I can click on the menu item for the phone connection and nothing happens. The logs show nothing -- not even an attempt to establish a ppp connection. Removing and creating a new mobile broadband connection does not help, still same situation. Currently, the only solution is to install Gnome's nm-applet and use that: the Gnome NM applet works flawlessly out of the box; creating the mobile broadband connection is a breeze; connecting also. Sigh. KDE 4 has still a long way to go to mature. Why is KDE 4.x broken when it comes to mobile broadband and also bluetooth (same situation)? -- No action when clicking connection name (GSM + Wireless) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445164 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to plasma-widget-networkmanagement in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
