Hi !

Your message motivated me to try to compile knetworkmanager from svn. As
you predicted, it solved my problem. Thanks a lot ! I wonder why fedora
didn't push an update to fix that annoying bug.

Quite unimportant, but by curiosity, what is the meaning of this message
I get every 6 seconds that I was talking about, and is there a way to fix it ?

13:54:25 NetworkManager: <info>  Error getting killswitch power: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.KillSwitch.NotSupported - Access type not supported
