Description:
Networkmanager crashes during login to KDE. When trying to login to KDE, it waits a few seconds, and then shows an error message: "Cannot open ConsoleKit session: Unable to open session: Activation of org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit timed out", so when desktop appears, networkmanager applet is broken. But when I try to logout and login again, everything works fine, until next restart.

Additional info:
* package version(s)
networkmanager 0.8.999-1
kdeplasma-applets-networkmanagement 1:git20110323-1
* config and/or log files etc.

Sorry for my useless comment: I had this bug some week ago, but it solved with the updates. Is you system fully up-to-date?
Do you use tmpfs?

Yes, everything is up-to-date. I have found a similar bug and the problem appeared because ConsoleKit doesn't create all neccessary directories before networkmanager starts, but it was on older version of networkmanager. No, I don't use tmpfs.

yes, as a workaround you can login in a tty first, then login in KDE.

It seems that some update fixed this problem, KDE starts fine now.
