Public bug reported: Apologies if this concerns network-manager not the kde frontend, but the timing makes me think it's possibly the latter.
Basically knetworkmanager only starts connecting to my wireless network once KDE has loaded (presumably once it has access to KWallet). It takes a while to connect, so I have to sit and wait before I can use my desktop. It would be much better if it could start connecting earlier so that I have network availability as soon as KDE is up and running. ** Affects: knetworkmanager (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- Connection starts late in the boot sequence https://launchpad.net/bugs/50199 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
