Thanks for explaining this. I enabled system wide conections and checked all 
my wireless connections as "available for all users", because otherwise 
passwords weren't stored and I had to type them each time I connected to a 
wireless network. Do you know why passwords for user-specific connections 
weren't stored?

I think I understand what's going on now. KNetworkManager can switch off the 
wireless card and when the card is switched on, the NM autoconnects to the 
network that was configured to "autoconnect=true". So the KNetworkManager 
still doesn't work.
