    bash has network connection, kde has not ? ...

    When i use the network with bash i can connect to all kind of server. when i try to surf on kde it does not work. I try to connect trough WLAN. The onboard Mainboard-Network-Controller is not really supported in 2.6.20 kernel i think.

    Ah by the way the knetworkmanager recognizes the ssid of the WLAN i want to connect but it always crashes (at 28%) when i try to connect to it.

    The only thing i remarked, is that the Network-Controller is called ra1 (never saw that before) might that be a problem?

    relevant Hardware:
    - Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 (2130) Dual Core, Sockel 775, Intel, 2MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB
    - ASUS Extreme EN7950GT/HTDP, 512MB GDDR3 RAM, GeForce 7950GT
    - Linksys WMP54GR-EU: WLAN PCI-Adapter, RangeBooster, 54Mbps, WEP, WPA
    - ASUS P5B-PLUS VISTA, ATX, Intel P965, FSB 1066MHz, Intel S775, 4xDDR2 800/667 MHz, PCI-E, Core2Duo

    Can you tell me where i could find some information about this problem (logfiles or whatever i don't know where to look for them)

    Perhaps you can help me with this problem

    thanks for try ;-)

    What do you mean? Also, if you can ping an external addres (google, kernel.org or whatever else), then you can also reach these addresses using a gui browser (konqueror, firefox, etc.).

    If your controller appears in the iwconfig output (see below - ra1) this means that either it is supported directly, or drivers have been installed for it.

    I've seen this when my Access Point was hidden (i.e. SSID Broadcast off). After switching SSID Broadcast on, I can connect with no problema at all. The solution to this is to install newer Wireless Tools - v. 29.

    your Network controller is called ra1, because it is based on some Ralink chipset. Try
    Code:
    lspci -vv
    . can you supply output of this command? Also
    Code:
    dmesg
    might be useful.

    Please supply the following:

    1)
    Code:
    lspci -vv
    2)
    Code:
    dmesg
    3)
    Code:
    lsmod

      Re: bash has network connection, kde has not ? ...

      thx for reply

      i recognized that when knetworkmanager is not started during login the problem is not existent. so knetworkmanager must be the problem.

      as soon is i solved an other problem (with my nvidia grafic-card :-)) ill post some log-files so that we can have a look at them.

      What do you mean? Also, if you can ping an external addres (google, kernel.org or whatever else), then you can also reach these addresses using a gui browser (konqueror, firefox, etc.).
      thats exactly what happend (but i only tried konqueror because i could not download firefox at this time)

      thx again for help ... ill post the logs later
