Hi Michael, thank you for the quick reply.

They are the ones that come with the packages (I checked by downloading and 
extracting). Just in case, they come attached to this mail.

Of course. ;-)

At the moment I launch knetworkmanager :

NetworkManager: <information>   Updating allowed wireless network lists.
NetworkManager: <WARNING>        nm_dbus_get_networks_cb (): error received:\
        org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo.NoNetworks -\
        org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo.NoNetworks.

signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) \
        path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; \
        member=NameOwnerChanged
   string ":1.22"
   string ""
   string ":1.22"
signal sender=org.freedesktop.DBus -> dest=(null destination) \
        path=/org/freedesktop/DBus; interface=org.freedesktop.DBus; \
        member=NameOwnerChanged
   string "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo"
   string ""
   string ":1.22"

I tested with a "virgin" test user and I have the same behaviour.

Sincerely,
