Kde4 network manager problem

i'm new to kdebase, can anyone tell me what is the software i need to install in kde base, so i easily manage with my network, like eth0 and wlan0.

Go to the wiki and type: `Wireless Setup` in the search box.
Once there scroll down to "Other network managers" and your choices are well explained.
Hope this helps.

  • Gnome-network-manager problems

    Hello all,
    I'm trying to use gnome-network-manager to connect to my wifi as it is WEP enabled and I don't know how to get it working in 'network'.
    I followed this tutorial: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager
    However, when I reboot under those settings, I can't connect to anything, including ethernet.
    Is there a problem in the wiki or is there a workaround that hasn't been posted there yet? I'm utterly confused as to why it will not work.
    Also, if you need me to paste any code from any file, can you also tell me an easy way to copy/paste between aterm and Opera as I haven't found a way to do that yet.
    Thank you very much for any help.

  • Network(Manager) problems after messing with netctl

    Hello, and thanks for taking time helping me!
    The story so far:
    I was trying to bridge my wired and wireless network on my laptop, using netctl: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bridge_with_netctl
    It dind't worked and it messed my network up (I could see the wifi-indicator in the topright of my screen frozen in its "connecting" state), but I could still use wifi.
    So I removed netctl and deleted its files from /etc/netctl and disabled/stopped the zombie-bridge. And then I could not connect wireless anymore (wired still works altough still frozen in the "connecting" state according to Gnome).

    PC: An Acer aspire v3 laptop

    My guess is that somewhere my bridge messed everything up. But as I've leared with arch the awser could be very simple.
    Thanks Again,
    Pascal

    I think I know what the problem is. I saw that a deamon called dhcpcd@wlp3S0 was running at the same time NetworkManager was. This would mean that both Networkmanager and netctl where running at the same time. I've disabled "dhcpcd@wlp3s0" and........ nothing.
    Does anyone knows witch daemons i should disable/enable to let the system run on networkmanager alone?

  • Network Manager: Problem using Mobile Broadband

    Hello,
    I'm trying to use NetworkManager to configure an Internet connection using a 3G modem USB dongle.
    I have a Huawei E160 on O2.
    Steps taken so far:
    * Installed NetworkManager using the ArchWiki article:
    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager
    * nm-applet would not start, and the error on the virtual terminal matched that in the troubleshooting section of that article. I backed up and changed those 2 files. I don't know much about PolicyKit but nm-applet started and was able to connect to a WiFi network.
    * I tried connecting to O2: the device was detected but on attempting to connect, the nm-applet connecting icon froze or stuttered (as in the animation was about 0.2fps).
    * Errors on the tty indicated that nm was looking for files that did not exist. After searching I found a package 'mobile-broadband-provider-info' on LaunchPad which is included in Ubuntu. I found it in the AUR and installed it.
    * Tried again, same behaviour of the icon, but this time errors on the tty resembled the errors that occured when nm-applet would not start.
    I'm guessing the problem is with the PolicyKit configuration in the 2 files:
    /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf
    /etc/dbus-1/system.d/nm-applet.conf
    If we can put together a general solution to 3G modems (rather than my specific problem), I will be willing to help out with the relevant wiki articles (probably after my exams).
    Thank you very much for your help,
    James Haigh.

    Hooray! It's working!
    I booted into Arch to run nm-applet from the terminal emulator to collect the exact error message to post, but then I noticed the mast icon!
    I couldn't figure out why this now worked but I wondered if Ubuntu had sort of initialised the modem somehow (when I started this thread using the LiveCD, that was the first time I'd got it to work).
    I don't think it was the restart because I'm pretty sure I restarted after installing mobile-broadband-provider-info.
    So I started to read the new replies. I thought I'd set pacman to download (and install) arch-wiki-docs while I write a reply. My USB wireless mouse stuttered and stopped working. I tried replugging it, syncing it, wouldn't work. The download which was going at about 20KB/s (I thought this was due to bad reception; my O2 phone gets 1 or 2 notches here at college), stuttered and spewed out errors.
    My tablet PC annoyingly has only 2 USB ports and no CD drive. So to use a LiveCD, keyboard and dongle I had to use a hub. I left the hub in when I booted Arch, and unplugging it fixed my mouse and dongle. The download went about 100KB/s!
    But I wasn't using the hub before I used the LiveCD. I was just using the keyboard and dongle, and a great Firefox add-on called LoL, which makes browsing with no mouse easier.
    (If interested, this list including LoL is useful:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo … n/keyboard )
    So the initial problem is at least 1 of these:
    * Bad reception
    * Ubuntu initialised the modem but my installation/configuration of Arch could not
    * I forgot to restart if/when it mattered
    And the 2nd problem was the hub.
    These weren't problems:
    * ConsoleKit configuration
    * Settings
    I tried to understand those 2 files using GVim's diff with the backups and I couldn't see anything to try, so I left them unchanged.
    My settings are in the manual for the dongle. They're not in mobile-broadband-provider-info so I will file a bug to make it easier for Ubuntu users etc. Looking at /usr/share/mobile-broadband-provider-info/serviceproviders.xml I made this:
    <apn value="m-bb.o2.co.uk">
    <name>Pay & Go</name>
    <username>o2bb</username>
    <password>password</password>
    </apn>
    The manual also says that:
    * Tel no: *99# (which appears to be default and is never specified in serviceproviders.xml)
    * Authentication: PAP (Also not specified, the default of try all methods works for me)
    I could add a mobile broadband subsection to the troubleshooting section of the wiki article:
    * Check signal
    * Check USB
    And add relevant links on articles like 'USB_3G_Modem' etc.
    owain wrote:...I felt a bit let down that some update, somewhere, had changed my settings without letting me know (there certainly wasn't a pacsave or pacnew which I'd missed).
    I like pacman and I like the way upgrading my system is my responsibility but that shouldn't have happened without a message. I'll be aware of things like this now, thanks.

    * modify the PKGBUILD
    * build and install.
    Also, command line configuration of connections might not be very practical at college; if something goes wrong I won't be able to access the ArchWiki, Google or other help. Although it might be worth a try.
    Yeah that sounds about right (except you don't need to modify the PKGBUILD, just place the downloaded files in the same folder as the PKGBUILD and run makepkg).
    That's useful to know.
    Once you've got your internet running you can install 'community/arch-wiki-docs' for offline wiki access.
    Thank you so much! This could be a life saver! I've installed it.
    If you're in the UK, mkwvconf output for O2 is:
    I will explore this alternative sometime. For something as important as this, a backup plan is useful. I've been using netcfg for WiFi for quite some time before I installed nm. It'd be great to use netcfg (and the nice menu) with wvdial.
    Thank you all very much,
    James.

    When I configure a Wep key to my wireless internet
    sharing network, my windows installed notebook can't
    connect to my iMac. But when I set up it free the
    notebook connects easily.
    There does seem to be a known issue with a WEP encrypted software base station and Windows clients.
    As far as I am aware there is no way to get a Windows client to connect to a WEP encrypted software base station (sharing internet via Airport on a Mac).
    I tried both with ASCII and
    HEX keys and generated them from:
    You could try a ASCII key of
    1234567123456
    which will be a HEX key of
    31323334353637313233343536
    However if this doesn't work then nothing will.
    I don't know what to do and I don't want to set a
    wireless network free for security problems. Does
    anyone know a solution?
    Yes, get a wireless router and use that, it really is the only suitable solution.

  • [SOLVED] Network Manager / nm-applet problems on fresh installation

    I have just carried out a fresh re-installation of Arch on my old netbook, following a self-inflicted crash!
    Previously, networking worked perfectly, but since the new installation, nm-applet is behaving strangely.
    All connections (wired and wireless) seem to work OK, but when connected wirelessly, the nm-applet constantly shows the "searching" icon, and hovering over it, the message "Requesting a Wi-Fi network address for '<wlan name>'" is displayed. The Network Connections screen says that the Wi-Fi connections has never been used, despite the fact that it works!
    I have tried re-configuring the connections, disabling IPV6 (this stops everything working) and completely uninstalling/re-installing Network Manager and nm-applet, but all without success.
    I would be very grateful fo any ideas of how to tackle this problem
    Many thanks in advance.

    I have fixed the wpa_supplicant problem (changed the .conf file), but the problem still persists. I have even carried out a full re-installation in case I did something stupid.
    Nnmtui shows "connecting" permanently, and nm-applet shows  "Requesting a Wi-Fi network address for '<wlan name>'" with the cycling connecting icon.
    Despite this, the wireless connection seems to work!
    Can anyone suggest what else to try?

  • [SOLVED] Network Manager confusion on reading WiKi

    I have installed KDE DE...I am unable to start the network through NM...
    On going thru Arch Wiki , https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NetworkManager
    I understand that there are 2 NMs available..One is for GNOME but works in all DE (backend), Other is "Knetworkmanager" which is for KDE.(backend)...
    The frontend GUI is Gnome- applet and KDEplasme-applet
    It is stated under KDE 3.5 , that Knetworkmanager is not supported but available in AUR...
    My doubt is as follows
    1. What should I install for KDE backend? --- Gnome Networkmanager or Knetworkmanager (Is the version for 4.4 & above supported?, wiki is silent on this)?
    2. For Frontend should I install the Plasma widget or the GNOME applet?
    3. If backend is GNOME network manager will it work with KDE plasma widget (front end) ?
    4. In /etc/rc.conf , in "DAEMONS = " should I give "knetworkmanager" or "networkmanager" If I install the KDE version?
    I had installed WIcd to test my settings...It was working initially after typing
    modprobe b43 <for bcm chipset>
    /etc/rc.d/network start
    /etc/rc.d/dbus restart
    /etc/rc.d/wicd start
    ifconfig wlan0 up
    dhcpcd wlan0
    wicd-curses
    Then I typed the network pwd and booted my interface.
    i wanted to go in for network manager as it would save me the typing time..(Currently I installed pacman -S networkmanager (GNOME version) and KDE plasma "the one with the icon similar to "m")But on selecting the interface it goes thru Activating Interface and then says "Network Connection failed"
    Now I am also not able to get wicd up
    Any pointers?
    EDIT ---The title says Graphical Front end managers, So I guess there is only one backend....In that case , why is my Network not working??All the wireless are detected ,so there is no problem with firmware....I have also enabled dhcpc (automatic)...So it shld fetch an IP address....dunno what the problem is..

    1. there is just one, networkmanager. network-manager-applet and kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement are just front-ends to networkmanager.
    2. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … nager#KDE4 , but https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ne … ager#GNOME will work too. I use network-manager-applet on KDE 'cause the KDE front-end can't set a system connection.
    3. I won't even bother to answer to this.
    4. networkmanager!!!

    if you are using networkmanager you must the networkmanager daemon, not network. replace network with networkmanager in rc.conf in DAEMONS array.

  • Network Manager cannot be configured

    Hi,
    I'm having some trouble with the Network Manager. I installed networkmanager, networkmanager-vpnc and kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement from the non-testing repoa and after a restart networking worked fine and I added the applet to the tray with no error.
    But then I wanted to configure the Network Manager. First of all the second page at the Network Manager settings (it's called "Sonstiges" in german) shows me this error message (translated to english):
    Library /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_networkmanagement_tray.so cannot be loaded: (/usr/lib/kde4/kcm_networkmanagement_tray.so: undefined symbol: _ZN27KNetworkManagerServicePrefs4selfEv)
    However, the file /usr/lib/kde4/kcm_networkmanagement_tray.so exists in the filesystem.
    When I try to add a VPNC connection it doesn't show all VPNC settings like it did on my fresh installed Kubuntu but the generic IPv4/IPv6 tabs. After that I clicked "OK"  and got an error windows with the message "service-type" in it.
    Did someone has a similar problem? Thanks in advance!

    pacman -Q kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement networkmanager
    be sure you are fully up to date, inclusive glibc,gcc-libs

  • No interfaces shown in network manager [SOLVED]

    Hi All,
    I have just done a fresh install of Arch on my new Sony Vaio VGN-FW53GF, all goes well, except for Network Manager.
    I can use my wired connection ok as eth0 shows up as active when I hover over the kde applet in the task bar. However when I go to "Manage Connections"
    I do not see any Wireless networks or even my "working" wired connection in any list.
    Wireless seems to be working as iwconfig shows an interface.
    wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:""

    But a scan gives this:

    This machine is using the Intel driver "iwlagn" supplied by the kernel (2.6.31).

    Can anyone offer some suggestion on how to get network manager going, I would like to use it. In the past
    I have used Wicd, but it has some limitations.
    Cheers,

    Ok, I found the issue. I was missing the firmware for the card. I downloaded firmware from the intel site as per the wiki on wireless and
    my interface comes up (shown with ifconfig) and I can see all the networks.
    However, I cannot seem to connect to my network with WPA. When I go to connect I get network manager thinking the access point is WEP and asking for pass phrase.
    If I select WPA(personal) and fill in a password, nothing happens .... just says unavailable.
    Can anyone give some idea's here. I have not used network manager before for WPA.
    Cheers,

    I use WPA2 with network manager without a problem.  It should "just work", im not sure why you have issues, can you switch your router to a different security protocol to test?

  • How do I install individual driver of Killer LAN without its Network Management application?

    I found sometimes the Network Management application would conflict with other online application, and in other forum an user provided a pure driver package that can solve the problem.
    Here is the steps:
    First you can download MSI pure Killer LAN driver from this link:
    http://pan.baidu.com/s/1mgwZs96
    Please uninstall old Killer LAN driver package from control panel if you already have the driver in OS.
    Download and extract the RAR file to windows desktop.  Double click “dpinst.exe” to install the killer driver.
    It is normal if you see the message of “No device for update present” in the last step, that’ s because the driver package includes all kinds of killer LAN chip drivers, some don’t exist in your system.
    Just click “Finish” to complete the driver installation.  Restart system and you can start to enjoy the web surfing.
    And if you encounter problem when you uninstall Killer LAN driver, you can use Killer official uninstall utility to completely remove the driver.
    32 bit:
    https://www.qca.qualcomm.com/drivers/KillerCleaner_32bit.exe
    64 bit:
    https://www.qca.qualcomm.com/drivers/KillerCleaner_64bit.exe

    Just install the Killer LAN driver from MSI website, the manager is always installed with the driver.

  • Oracle BPM for Network Management Projects

    Has anybody used Oracle BPM for network management projects with millions of events?
    Can Oracle BPM handle it?

    Please follow this step may this solve your problem.
    please modify any thing in process "ExpenseReporting" for example any transition or any activity to place some where else or any other modification and then save that process. Then clean the project and build and deploy it.
    if this also not solve the problem then export that project to and import it again in your workspace (Create new workspace or change the project name in same workspace ) and then again clean, build and deploy the application then test in work space.
    Thanks,
