Try to re-install klipper screen using tool named with "Kiauh" it will ask you using network manager during install select "yes"
Hello I reinstalled klipper, before installing klipperscreen via kihau I can see my wifi network and once klipper screen is installed I don't see it anymore following the last update
I fount the root cause of the issue. It's mainly caused by the privilege of network manager,update to the latest version and reinstall by kiah can solve it. But if it's still not work , try to fix it by yourself by modify the pkla files of your system. In the meanwhile of installing by kiah, it creates two pkla in direction "/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/" "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.*" is to give the privileges of network.
you can try to add "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.*" to the two files( usually needed).
Last try "nmcli general permissions" to show the permissions of the current user, if all the permission valus is "YES", all the problems resolved!

thank you, I'll try this
i don't have acces to "/etc/polkit-1/localauthority/50-local.d/"
try "sudo "
emmm... sudo is the command to level up privilege temporary to root, so need a real command after sudo. like sudo cd /x/x/x etc...
yes I know but the system tells me that I don't have permission to access the file
sorry I'm starting with linux and I don't master all the basics
I did nmcli general permissions
Here are the results even though I didn't touch anything
And does the wifi scaning work good?
the wifi scan runs continuously but doesn't show me anything
logfile of klipper are not valid for klipperscreen

Thank you!
looking at the logs your network is marked as "unavailable", and that may prevent ks from working properly, made some changes(3d75372) to catch the error and at least throw a popup, and a request reload, it's unknown to me if the condition is transitory or not, test after the changes
Hello
No change except for a message when searching
unexepted error: Scanning not allowed while unavailable
from what i can gather the "unavailable" status can be caused by many things, the most common would be invalid permissions as cuihuir mentioned, or conflicting services (like having wpa_supplicant running), none of the cases point to a klipperscreen issue, ks will only work if networkmanager works (try with nmcli or other nmtui) so there is no fix from the application itself, this needs the os needs to be configured to work with nm or it will not work
As there is everything ok with an older version of klipperscreen and the issue only occures after the update it is very likely that the issue is caused by klipperscreen
