Wanna use KDE but cant :(

Mon May 25, 2009 8:56 pm
Ok, I've tried three different distros, all had the same two problems that means KDE is unsusalbe for me

1st problem;

Network manager malfunctions after updating from fresh install.

It simply wont connect to my network after I update, I have no idea why.
The network manager is also fairly unfriendly, using terms I'm not familar with.


2nd problem;

Nvidea driver screws up the system (version; 180)

Menus WILL crash the system or lock it up. When such a menu is called upon (like the network managers panel) it will freeze the system, the buttons may or may not appear, for the first 10 seconds or so the mouse is fine, then dissappears for two seconds. the system then crashed.


I have no idea how to fix these issues, any help would be appreciated.

1st problem: You could try to use another network manager like wicd

2nd problem: What exactly is the productnumber of your graphics card?
