Bug Description
im not sure i chose the right app up top, but here is what happens...
every now and again, when i start up the system the kde network manager doesnt load at all(or takes too long to load, since after a min or so i just re-log). it takes re-logging for it to truly start, so basically using wifi is a hassle/pain...
this did not happen right when i installed kubuntu, so either its a regression of current bugs, or its something that happens after long system ussage.
:(
this is it.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Kubuntu better. The KDE3 version of KNetworkManager has been discontinued by its original authors. This unfortunately means that there will be no more bugfix releases, and updates in general will be limited to those fixing security flaws.
While we cannot fix your bug, the good news is that the applet has been totally rewritten for KDE4 in the upcoming Kubuntu 9.10 release. There is a good chance that this bug is no longer an issue with the new applet. If you find any similar or new issues with the applet included in Kubuntu 9.10, we would politely ask you to file them as new bugs against the "plasma- widget- networkmanageme nt" package.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
