Thinkpad Edge, Intel Version, OS 11.3, KDE 4.5.2

Hello
after my notebook shut down (due to low battery) when I was just using Knetworkmanager to add a new W-LAN connection, I can't start Knetworkmanager anymore. Networkmanager works properly, I'm using nm-applet right now. Re-installation of all (K)networkmanager packages via yast didn't help.

Terminal output is:

Code: Select all

knetworkmanager

Connecting to deprecated signal QDBusConnectionInterface::serviceOwnerChanged(QString,QString,QString)

knetworkmanager(4599): Communication problem with  "knetworkmanager" , it probably crashed.
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown" : " "The name org.kde.knetworkmanager was not provided by any .service files" "

Code: Select all

cat /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state

WirelessEnabled=true
WWANEnabled=true

Following the suggestion in another forum, I tried the following commands which did not help either:
sudo rm /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state
sudo /etc/init.d/network restart

Output then was as follows

Code: Select all

Now terminal output is the same as posted on top of the page.

Thanks in advance for your replies!

Please remove the following file and folder.

~/.kde4/share/config/networkmanagementrc
~/.kde4/share/apps/networkmanagement

Thanks - problem solved. I assume the file networkmanagementrc was damaged due to the shut down.
