KDE version 4.2.0, when I try to open knetworkconf via system settings > network settings > network settings (again) I get a popup saying "Could not parse the XML file ()." twice (so two popups in total). When I click them away all the menus and buttons are greyed out. I got the same result on an amd64 system with kdebase-meta and some other kde packages and on an x86 machine with kde-meta installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. go to system settings 2. click on network settings 3. click on network settings again
kcmshell output: isilia@Gentoo ~ $ kcmshell4 kcm_knetworkconfmodule.desktop --get XML: XML -d list_ifaces: isilia@Gentoo ~ $ kcmshell4 kcm_knetworkconfmodule --get XML: XML -d list_ifaces: No change in resuls.
Apparently fixed with 4.2.1 package... but still no interfaces in ksysguard or network plasmoids...
