I had this problem also. I have both KDE and GNOME installed. In KDE I
was unable to do anything with KNetworkManager--both the right-click and
left-click only brought up "Networking is disabled." I switched to
GNOME and saw in the panel that networking was disabled. I right-
clicked on the indicator and clicked "Enable networking", and now it
works.
I don't remember if I had disabled networking in the GNOME Network
Manager, but that seems likely.
Anyway, if the GNOME one can enable networking, the KDE one should be
able to also. However, I noticed that while the GNOME one has the
ability to "Enable/disable networking," the KDE one only has
"Enable/disable wireless." Is the KDE one missing this functionality
altogether?
** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)
