Bug Description
Hi,
I have Kubuntu 7.04 on a Dell Inspiron B130 (1300) laptop with a bcm43xx WiFi card. It works well enough with Ndiswrapper and also with the native bcm43xx driver, but KNetworkManager is giving me trouble.
Every time I boot up my system, KNetworkManager tries to connect, but then it hangs at "28% Configuring Device". Sometimes it gets to the IP configuration stage if I am using the native bcm43xx driver. But no matter what, it won't connect the first time. I have to power-cycle my WiFi radio to get it to connect. In subsequent logins, it is already connected when I login, it's only the first connection after bootup that is broken.
I tried booting up my system and logging in to failsafe, and I pinged a website and found that my connection is loading at boot, as I want it to. But I need KnetworkManager to work for the signal strength graph, etc. I also tried the gnome variant nm-applet and it behaves exactly the same.
Thanks for your help!
