I am a new Gentoo user and I have to say that I have really enjoyed the Gentoo-experience. Kudos to the Gentoo developers.

The only issue I have experienced so far is that KDE's networkmanager applet networkmanagement do not work with dhcp. There is no issues if I configure networkmanagement manually to static ip.

I use dhcpcd and I have tried to emerge networkmanagement with or without the dhcpcd USE flag with no succes.

USE flags: (A little messy) :)
Code:
     USE="autoipd avahi bluetooth branding connection-sharing consolekit dbus
     fbcondecor icu java kde minizip mmx mng networkmanager opengl
     policykit python qt4 sse sse2 static-libs synaptics udev wifi xorg     
     -modemmanager -qt3 -dso git subversion perl jpeg lock session startup-notification X"


rc-update:
Code:
       NetworkManager |      default                 
         avahi-daemon |      default                 
             bootmisc | boot                         
                 dbus |      default                 
                devfs |      default          sysinit
                dmesg |                       sysinit
           fbcondecor | boot                         
                 fsck | boot                         
                  gpm |      default                 
             hostname | boot                         
              hwclock | boot                         
              keymaps | boot                         
            killprocs |              shutdown       
                local |      default                 
           localmount | boot                         
              modules | boot                         
             mount-ro |              shutdown       
                 mtab | boot                         
             netmount |      default                 
               procfs | boot                         
                 root | boot                         
            savecache |              shutdown       
                 swap | boot                         
               sysctl | boot                         
            syslog-ng |      default                 
         termencoding | boot                         
                 udev |                       sysinit
       udev-postmount |      default                 
              urandom | boot                         
           vixie-cron |      default


And again thanks to the Gentoo community... I hope you will help me resolve this issue.

I may be wide of the mark in your case, but I could not get the dhcpcd DHCP client to work, only the dhclient DHCP client. See Wireless not working (Atheros ATH5K) [Solved]. I did:

Code:
# emerge dhcp
# USE="-dhcpcd dhclient" emerge networkmanager

That's good news. Glad I could help.

But I don't know why you are seeing 'weird' KDE Network Management buttons, as I don't experience that myself. What exactly do they look like? Is the problem confined to the Network Management widget, or do other widgets or parts of the screen exhibit similar behaviour?

Strange. Have you tried running kbuildsycoca4 and/or re-installing kde-misc/networkmanagement?

Sorry for slow respond.

I have reinstalled networkmanagement many times and running kbuildsycoca4 did not help.

Heres output of kbuildsycoca4:
Code:
kbuildsycoca4 running...
kbuildsycoca4(4159) KConfigGroup::readXdgListEntry: List entry text/html in "/home/nimoov/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list" is not compliant with XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon).

Not sure, then. Have you tried clearing the icon cache?
