Yes, it works fine, but again it is a gtk program. Is it possible that while
gnome has a lot of integrated network managers, kde does not have one that
works? I guess this could be a limitation in the adoption of kde-based systems
and if Ubuntu has made really simple the adoption of Linux, Kubuntu should try
to do the same.
