I agree, knetworkmanager is much nicer than messing with system settings 
in KDE..(an admin password is needed to enable/disable eth0 all the time 
in both cases...) I think knetworkmanager must be taking exclusion of 
other resources.. As oppose to just being a front end for controlling 
them...(isn't that what it's supposed to be?) *yawns tiredly* Why must 
networking be this way...
 Maybe it's secure to not let grandma have physical access to the 
internet on my computer.. lol, anyways, I digress!
