I've rebuilt the the debian package from the debian source with your patch.
Now, knetworkmanager can see the wireless networks.
But when I try to associate with the network, knetworkmanager does not ask me
for the WPA key (I tryed with a blank new user). What is strange, is that de
NetworkManager logs states that the key was sent:

[etc]
Note that in the beginning of the log, I have a difference between
knetworkmanager and nm-applet :
With nm-applet:
NetworkManager: <information> Updating allowed wireless network lists.
NetworkManager: <information> SWITCH: no current connection, found
better
connection 'eth1'.
NetworkManager: <information> Will activate
connection 'eth1/linksys'.
NetworkManager: <information> Device eth1 activation scheduled...
With knetworkmanager:
NetworkManager: <information> Updating allowed wireless network lists.
NetworkManager: <WARNING> nm_dbus_get_networks_cb (): error

I don't know if it's important.
Nevertheless, I can connect with the "connect to another network" feature
except that I have to use the WPA-PSK key and not the ASCII passphrase;
Michael, on the debian-powerpc mailing list another person told me he has the
same issue not being able to use the ASCII passphrase.
Sincerely,
Yannick
