As I mentioned, I am running KDE. Does one have to run Gnome to use NetworkManager? I have started NetworkManager with "sudo service NetworkManager start", and I then ran "sudo NetworkManagerInfo &". According to the documentation this should bring up an icon (in the "notification area" wherever that is). However, I see no new icon.anywhere on my desktop, and no new items seem to have been added to the Redhat menu. Please note that my WiFi card works perfectly until I start NetworkManager. So I am not looking for advice on how to configure a network card. Has anyone actually run NetworkManager under KDE? If so I would very much like to hear from them. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
