It seems I have knetworkmanager and NetworkManager* installed, which may well be why I have problems. In the systemtray I have an icon that looks like an unplugged RJ45 cable, which tells me that the network is not available. Nonsense, of course. Left or Right-click on it tells me that network management is disabled. NetworkManager-gnome never seemed to work on this laptop, so I'd like to try knetworkmanager. Can you give me some hints with regard to sorting this out?
