Also, the PackageManager icon seems to work better with PolicyKit now. I'm not sure how to test the screensaver thing, but otherwise, this works for me. Works for me; are you going to request this to be pushed to -testing or -stable? I just noticed that the /etc/kde/kdm/background.rc file points to a non-existant file: Wallpaper=/usr/share/backgrounds/waves/2-sulphuric-waves-day.1600.png Oops... That's overridden by the theme we set, it's left over from the configuration we tried before we had fedorawaves-kdm-theme, when the Waves backgrounds weren't the final ones yet. kde-settings-4.0-24.fc9 has been pushed to the Fedora 9 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update kde-settings'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F9/FEDORA-2008-5536 kde-settings-4.0-24.fc9 has been pushed to the Fedora 9 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. gnome-keyring-pam (which is not set up for KDM by this update) doesn't appear to work properly with KDM. I installed this update, then manually installed gnome-keyring-pam which was not installed. As a result, NM no longer asked me for my keyring password, but it also was not able to fetch the WPA key from the keyring (and prompted me for it). And yes, my GNOME keyring password is the same as my login password. Removing gnome-keyring-pam again restored the status quo (have to enter the keyring password, but the WPA key can be fetched from the keyring just fine). Kevin, there are HOWTO's for that. In short, if you weren't using gnome-keyring-pam before, you need to reset your keyring (password?), and start over, then everything "just works". Yes, far from ideal, but oh well. For completeness, here's the guide I (basically) followed to get it to work for me: http://fedoraunity.org/Members/thomasj/Gnome-keyring The HOWTO says:
> If you are useing NetworkManager (nm-applet) for your Wlan and you log in
> next time at Gnome, you will be asked for a new Password for
> gnome-keyring-manager. Give the same as your login password. From there your
> keyring will automatic opened for you when you login.
But my keyring password is ALREADY the same as my login password. Weird...
