HI, i looked for this project forum to post my question but i didnt find any and decided to post my problem here. Hope its the right place.
I was using NM 0.8.4 just fine and then i went to planet kde and there is a post there that says NM 0.8 series is now deprecated for knetworkmanager and everybody is advised to start using version 0.9.
I compiled this version from sources the same way i did for 0.8.4 and previous( the normal typical ./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install) but this new version is now failing to work and google isnt helpuf in giving me assistance. Below is a log of the error msg i am getting when network manager start.
: ifplugd 0.28 initializing.
