During installation a problem appears, "tex-common" could not be installed but I think this has nothing to do with my problem concerning the wireless network. The network-assistant finds my wlan router, but I cannot connect. When clicking on the network's name a new window opens where I can set up an NEW network. But I just want to connect a existing one. The only thing I can do is to connect by ethernet.....Can anybody please help me? Thank you!

ah I see.... I will go and test tonight, seeing as I dont have a 9.04
-> 9.10 kubuntu handy, and get back to you.

If I understand you correctly the following took place:
-Install kubuntu 9.04 (32bit/64bit)
-connect to wireless network
-upgrade to kubuntu 9.10
-unable to connect to wireless network, either manually OR automatically

Is that correct?
