Looks like you need to: gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor actually; a distro should do this for you in the package but you may need to do it once yourself. > ** (nm-connection-editor:5876): WARNING **: Failed to initialize the > UI, exiting... > Maybe the gnome networkmanager didn't work with kde. > Is there another way to edit my connections? > > knetworkmanager didn't show me openconnect as option to select, even > not after reboot. Huh; knetworkmanager may not have the right GUI bits for openconnect yet? > Sadly there isn't a package like Networkmanager-openconnect-kde4. > Is there a way to start the openconnect plugin from the console? Yeah, that's probably the issue. > I tried this without success: > /usr/libexec/nm-openconnect-auth-dialog -s > org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.openconnect -n test_connection > Error given: > Have to supply UUID, name, and service. Normally when you click the VPN connection to connect, the applet tells NM to connect that VPN. NM then tells nm-openconnect-service to connect, and nm-openconnect-service may say "hey, I need some passwords!". NM then asks the applet for the passwords, and the applet runs nm-openconnect-auth-dialog to get those passwords. They are then sent back to NM, which sends them back to nm-openconnect-service, and the VPN proceeds. So nm-openconnect-auth-dialog isnt' really something that can be run manually... I think in the end, there either needs to be some KDE UI for openconnect, or you may need to use nm-applet :( Dan > What UUID? > Without a connection-editor I can't create a connection name, so I > can't supply a correct name? > > Anything else i can try? > > > Dan Williams schrieb: > > On Tue, 2009-12-08 at 17:26 +0100, Martin Frank wrote: > > > > > I'm using OpenSUSE 11.2, I've downloaded the openconnect plugin 0.7.2 > > > from > > > http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager-openconnect/0.7/ > > > > > > ./configure > > > make > > > make install > > > > > > I also installed openconnect. > > > No problems. > > > > > > But how can I use this plugin within the networkmanager? > > > > > > > First, either restart NetworkManager or reboot; NM doesn't yet notice > > new vpn plugins on-the-fly.
