Description neo6238-kde 2011-11-18 20:22:30 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.1) 
OS:                Linux

While starting KDE with netbook-plasma, kdewallet pops and wants you to type in the password for it, to activate wireless LAN.
When you try that, you would not finish in most times, as in the meanwhile netbook-plasma becomes ready and receives the focus. Now you are no longer typing into kdewallet, but into the Search-field in netbook-plasma.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure KDE to boot netbook-plasma, if necessary.
2. Set kdewallet to manage the wireless password.
3. Log out and in again into KDE.

Actual Results:  
look at details, please

Expected Results:  
maybe it is possible to set kdewallet always on focus, so that you at least can type in your password properly and do not write it in CLEAR letters (no password-stars) into this search box!

somehow load plasma-netbook in the background and not as a program. (i mean you can switch with alt+tab between normal programs and the plasma-netbook unlike on desktop version). well i mean it is useful to enable it like that, but hmm maybe some alt+f1 alternative can be found.

sorry, if i am not very helpful here.

or (less nice) just show kdewallet after netbook-plasma. this is little waste of time, but some gain in security at least

workaround: no password for kdewallet, well not very satisfying solution?!
