** Description changed: ISO testing 20.04 Kubuntu daily image (20200323). Something involving Kwallet & wifi is installed differently depending on whether I take the - path "Try it" (install from Live desktop), or "Install now." + path "Try Kubuntu" (install from Live desktop), or "Install Kubuntu." - 1. When I install from the Live Desktop, upon first reboot wifi doesn't - connect automatically. I have to manually connect, at which point - Kwallet inserts itself & makes me set up a password (with no indication - that a null password is acceptable). I end up having to give the Kwallet - password every time I boot (before wifi will connect). + 1. When I choose "Try Kubuntu" & install from the Live Desktop, upon + first reboot wifi doesn't connect automatically. I have to manually + connect which invokes Kwallet & makes me set up a password (with no + indication that a null password is acceptable).

The #1 behavior has bothered me for awhile. It hasn't felt normal, and - would be confusing to new users. It took a month for me to learn that I + would be confusing to new users. It took me a month to learn that I could enter a null password and never be bothered by Kwallet again. I've been debating opening a bug about that. Something didn't feel right about it. But, that's subjective. - Fortunately, I tried "Install now" and it worked the way I thought it - should have worked. That's not a subjective bug (the install should work - the same either way). + Fortunately, I tried "Install Kubuntu" and it worked the way I thought + it should have worked. That's not a subjective bug (the install should + work the same either way). IMO, #2 is the proper behavior. Everything works the way a new user would expect. (I strongly feel like #1 is offputting to new users and an unnecessary exposure to something new, before they can proceed much further past the installation. They end up having to enter a 2nd password each time they boot in order to get wifi to work. As I said, I was contemplating opening a subjective bug report about this. I was relieved to see that it may not have been intended to work that way.).
