Using nm-applet instead of knetworkmanager or kde-plasma-networkmanagement
Do you prefer to use the old NetworkManager gui instead of knetworkmanager or kde-plasma-networkmanagement? If so just follow these simple instructions to enable it by default.
Enable nm-applet autostart
$ yum install NetworkManager-gnome
$ mkdir ~/.kde/share/autostart
$ grep -v NotShowIn /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop > ~/.kde/share/autostart/nm-applet.desktop
then use (kde-4.4) systemsettings->(advanced)->autostart or (kde-4.5) systemsettings->(system administration)->Startup and Shutdown to:
- enable nm-applet
Disable knetworkmanager
On Fedora 13, knetworkmanager is used by default in kde.
$ cp /usr/share/autostart/kde4-knetworkmanager-autostart.desktop ~/.kde/share/autostart/
then use (kde-4.4) systemsettings->(advanced)->autostart or (kde-4.5) systemsettings->(system administration)->Startup and Shutdown to:
- disable knetworkmanager
Alternatively, you can uninstall knetworkmanager to effectively disable it too.
Disable kde-plasma-networkmanagement
On Fedora 14, kde-plasma-networkmanagement is used by default in kde. The simplest way to disable it, is to uninstall it. Even if the plasma applet isn't present or active on your desktop, it's kded module autoloads, which will prevent other managers, like nm-applet, to function.
Alternatively, you can, edit
/usr/share/kde4/services/kded/networkmanagement.desktop
to contain
X-KDE-Kded-autoload=false
Restart your session
Logout, Login, and you should now see nm-applet active in your system tray.
