Default WPA works on LiveCD but cannot connect on installed opensuse

I had no problems connecting to my linksys wifi router using WPA-PSK TKIP when Im booting the LiveCD. It will auto scan for the SSID and I just need to input the shared key, and connects successfully.

I installed that live cd opensuse 11 to my HD and I'm not really sure why I can't connect via WPA. I alredy input the WPA shared key but it still prompting me the password.
I also tried wpa-gui and modify wpa_supplicant.conf but no avail.

If it worked on LiveCD it should also work for the installed OS, any difference?

If it's kde4 you may have problems. Tell us what you are using.
