No root privileges needed to start it up. This is maybe a little confusing because the installation package itself is named network-manager-tde. Once you start it up, you'll want to fiddle with it, as there is an option to have it start up automatically when you boot the system. I've been using wicd more myself, because the two programs seem to fight it out for my connection. But wicd is installed by default in Devuan, and it seems more stable; so even though I've always used knetworkmanager in the old KDE3, and would like to use it in TDE, wicd serves me a little better. Also, in wicd, I can choose different access points in my network (as I've found that tdenetworkmanager doesn't always choose the closest or strongest signal).
