Currently it tells me that my network is unavailable, although I'm working on-line quite happily. I would like to see available networks, wired and wireless, and statistics about my actual connection - particularly speed and wireless signal strength. Some time ago I tried wicd with Mandriva, and that was the best front-end I've seen. > 3. bluetooth device support No experience of it. > 4. phonon backend The xine backend worked perfectly for me under F11, but is broken under F12 + KDE 4.3.90. Consequently I have several sound problems. #Note to self - search bugzilla. I would like to see the UI showing available devices, and an indication of which device is being used. Related, I think - I would like KMix to show my channels again, instead of simply Internal Audio Analog Stereo, as it does at present. > 5. anything else you can think of... > Most things seem to be fine, thanks.
