My desktop was installed with Kubuntu 8.10 and KDE 4.1. I upgraded to the backported KDE 4.2 at some point. When Kubuntu 9.04 shipped, I upgraded to that (also KDE 4.2) and had no issues.
I just followed the kubuntu.org directions to upgrade my 9.04 with KDE 4.3.
It had issues with the plasma-widget-network-manager, but nothing else. I removed that package, re-ran
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
and it installed\upgraded a bunch of packages. Everything seems to be working, but I have no network management plasmoid. I know plasma-widget-network-manager is not supported anymore. I have a VM image that was a fresh 9.04 install, and it did the KDE upgrade fine. It also let me add a Network Managemnt plasmoid that is new/different that the brokenish one that KDE 4.2 had.
Why dosen't my desktop have the new network manager plasmoid? How can I manually install or add it to the system tray like it is on my VMWare install?
Thanks!
