Bug Description
I installed kubuntu using the April 6th 2006 daily iso.
The installer couldn't detect my wireless network so I chose 'Do not configure network at this time'
systemsettings crashes when I tried System Settings->Network Settings-
As soon as I click Configure Interface it crashes, for both eth0 and ath0.
After try this 3 times, it stopped asking me for the password when I went to administrator mode. Instead I just got a blank screen. At this point kdesu stopped working completely.
I don't know if the kdesu problem and the crashing network settings problem are related.
Now if I install Ubuntu with Gnome first. Setup the network there, and install kubuntu-desktop. Everything work fine. I can edit network settings using systemsettings. It crashes if they are not setup beforehand.
To reproduce this bug, you must try on a fresh kubuntu install AFAIK.

I tried with the April 20th kubuntu daily build and get the exact same result. If I'm not the only one, this is a very serious bug.
When breezy was released, there was also a bug preventing the configuration of the network settings. That was unacceptable. This one has got to be fixed.
