I’m running Klipper on a BTT Pad7. Due to a failing SD card I had to reinstall everything. I used the image provided by BTT on Github. I’ve gotten everything to work except when you click on the network panel you get a “Unable to load panel network” error. I can use it hooked up to ethernet but would like to get this resolved. Kipperscreen log attached. TIA

Newer Debian based distros include netplan but not networkmanager.
KlipperScreen only interfaces with network manager.
# Network
The network panel relies on Network-Manager for its operation.
!!! info "Note for Forks"
The network panel's behavior and dependencies may differ. Please refer to your specific fork documentation or support resources for instructions tailored to your setup.
## Loss of Connection After Installing Network-Manager
If you lose network connection after installing Network-Manager, follow these steps to reconnect:
### Reconnect using KlipperScreen
- **Go to the network panel in KlipperScreen:**
- Access the network panel in KlipperScreen and select your Wi-Fi network to reconnect.
!!! info "Alternative: using the console"
- **Option 1: Switch to a local console with keyboard:**
1. Use `Ctrl + Alt + F1` (or other function keys up to F6) to access a virtual terminal.
2. Log in and run `nmtui` to manage Wi-Fi connections directly from the console.

I manually installed networkmanager VIA SSH.
Worked for me. YMMV
As you suggested I used KIAUHI to uninstall and reinstall Klipperscreen and that took care of the problem.
Thanks for the input.
