Bug Description
Binary package hint: knetworkmanager
Hello. I discovered KNetworkmanager seems to work just fine with my nforced-based ethernet card, but whenever I connect using wvdial (or gnome-ppp), KDE apps like Konqueror, Amarok and KTorrent can't even get a byte through the ppp0 interface. 'ping' and Non-KDE apps work fine, and oddly enough ftp in Konqueror works as well..
Anyways, as soon as I did a "sudo pkill knetworkmanager" (sudo for the heck of it) and started those KDE apps fresh, they were able to connect to the internet!
Sorry if this is a duplicate, but I didn't notice anyone else using wvdial to connect to the internet. -acg
