After upgrading to 4.5.1 I've noticed that network entries in the
knetworkmanager tray icon menu are shown as empty lines. Connections
confiured to start automatically are still started, but I can't do
anything with the menu entries: they don't have tooltips and nothing
happens when I click on them (so I can't establish a non-automatic
connection).
It's a sid system updated from qt-kde.d.o.

Try using plasma-widget-networkmanagement instead of the
knetworkmanager tray icon.

Do you think plasma-widget-networkmanagement is superior to
knetworkmanager?

Yes, it is, and it is the recommended network manager frontend in kde
now. This knetworkmanager version was just developed as a temporary
solution for some distributions that wanted a stable network manager
frontend when the plasma widget was still unstable and unfit for a
stable distribution release. Now this is not a problem anymore. Also
note that kde in squeeze has plasma-widget-networkmanagement as the
default frontend (recommended from kde-standard).

Thank you for clarifying me this topic, I didn't know anything about it.

It doesn't show any connections in the right part of the popup window and
it even doesn't automatically connect to a wifi network which has "Connect
automatically" property set.

That was fixed by one more reboot.
