KnetworkManager doesn't save the WPA Key unless Kwallet is installed and configured

The same applies to my system. Please change status to confirmed.

Hello,

Finally it works for me but only with kwallet. The password safe desnt work without this tool.

If it's mandatory please provide a note or a documentation.

Thanks

If I may ask, how did you make it work?

I didn't do anything.

Just install kwallet and activate it.

After that each time I connect in a new session, I need to reopen kwallet. For the first time I want to connect to a network I need to put the pssword and then it is stored in kwallet.

for me the best solution was install kwallet and then change the wallet password to nothin. Now I don't need to put any password.

I end up doing this as well. changing to confirmed.

In fact, knetworkmanager seems to have been designed this way, as shown in the FAQ:

Q: How can I store passphrases associated with encrypted wireless networks?
A: Activate KWallet support:

* start kwalletmanager
* right click wall icon in tray
* "Configure Wallet"
* Check "Enable the KDE wallet subsystem" on the tab "Wallet Preferences"

That also looks pretty logic since it is a pure kde application and kwallet is the standard secured method to store passwords with kde...
