Took my time and fought several hours with udev, hal, dbus, dbus-qt 
bindings, network manager etc. It's real challenge if your distro doesn't 
support all this stuff out of the box - all places full of hardcoded 
paths or configuretime paths, version hell (piece 0.x.y is incompatible 
with piece 0.x.y+1) etc. Finally it seemed to work, but ... even "make -f 
Makefile.cvs" in kdereview fails here:

automake: cannot open < knetworkmanager/admin/deps.am: No such file or 
directory
make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1

After several attempts to manual Makefile edits, I finally got this:

knetworkmanager-devicestore.cpp:101: error: no matching function for call 
to 'DeviceStoreDBus::updateNetwork(const QString&, const QString&, const 
char [1])'
knetworkmanager-devicestore_dbus.h:52: note: candidates are: static void 
DeviceStoreDBus::updateNetwork(const char*, const char*, const char*, 
const char*)
make[1]: *** [knetworkmanager-devicestore.lo] Error 1

Took NetworkManager-kde-0.1r5961-2.src.rpm from suse. Oh, it builds! But 
no luck with running. After short fight with dbus, knetworkmanager still 
says that "no network device found" and outputs to the terminal:

updateNetwork: Found network without device? Bailing out.

I gave up ;(.
