[gentoo-user] KDE4 & NetworkManager applet?

[gentoo-user] KDE4 & NetworkManager applet?

[Mike Edenfield]

I've just switched my laptop over to KDE4 to see how it 
feels on the smaller screen, and I can't find the KDE 
equivalent of nm-applet. KDE 3's knetworkmanager doesn't 
compile for me, and when I run the GNOME nm-applet it adds 
and then immediately removes itself from the notification area.

I use NetworkManager for VPN connections so I'd rather not 
have to switch ti wicd if possible.

Is there a KDE equivalent applet or plasmoid or whatever?
