Are you using knetworkmanager on Rawhide? As far as I know,
knetworkmanager doesn't work with the newest NetworkManager and you
should use nm-applet instead.
Yes, I was trying to use knetworkmanager.
I tried nm-applet last week, and that didn't work for me,
so I gave up on it. But today... IT WORKS! :-)
So... as it stands:
a) I appear to have wireless working now.b) use 'nm-applet', not 'knetworkmanager'
but...
c) The wireless LED on the laptop no longer shows any network activity.d) Fn-F2 no longer disables (controls) wireless
e) When I try to use Fn-F2, it is ignored, wireless continues to work,
and
/var/log/messages complains with:
