WIFI/ KNetworkmanager: very good at one netbook, weird behaviour at another one.

Seemingly, the problem because of which I started this thread, has been solved.

At the machine in question, the HP Pavilion dm 1, I carried out
another fresh install. I first loaded Kubuntu from the DVD to the
laptop. After doing so, I activated a wireless internet connection
before starting the installation process. After the installation, I
have used the "workaround" summarised above only once. At each restart
afterwords, the system automatically and correctly catches the WIFI
signal.
Thanks for all the input in this thread.
Respectfully yours,
Bas Roufs.
