I'm slightly puzzled by knetworkmanager, which I have installed,
and which is running.

What I don't understand is the relation to nm-applet.
I had understood that knetworkmanager was a replacement for this.
But I have both running, and my WiFi connection seems fine.
I have a new WiFi icon in my panel - it looks like a green globe - 
as well as the old one with vertical bars indicating 
the strength of the signal.

I haven't actually seen any point in knetworkmanager to date.
It doesn't seem to add or subtract anything from what I had before.
