Comment 11 for bug 263097

After updating (now: uname -a: Linux cy810 2.6.27-4-generic #1 SMP Wed Sep 24 01:30:51 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux) I can now connect to the wlan; it actually seems to be doing it faster than before. But the script may not be complete:

first, the wlan access key is asked every time I start the computer, although KWallet is available. It does not even ask about storing the key. This is a bit cumbersome.

second, I now have two icons in the system tray, the old one from KNetworkmanager, and the new one from the NetworkManagerApplet. Did the script forget to delete the old one, or is KNetworkmanager still needed? As before I can see all wlan networks in KNetworkmanager, but cannot connect to them. Only the applet allows connections. Once it is connected, the KNetworkmanager icon changes to the staircase icon showing the signal strength, just as the applet icon does. A bit confusing.

Lastly, since in fiddling with this I had manually initiated some downloads of drivers and such, I cannot tell if the script does the whole thing properly. If you like, I can try it out if you tell me how to reset this thing to start condition.
