Description of problem:
Added wireless applet, clicked it, says that Network Manager is not
running. I ran /etc/init.d/NetworkManager status, confirmed it wasn't
running, started it, clicked wireless applet, says there are no
network devices.  My Orinoco Mini-PCI was automatically set up on
install.  Restarting the applet changed nothing.

In addition, right clicking the applet brings up no option to
move/remove/etc it like other applets.  Just brings up the same
information box that clicking it does.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-applets-2.8.0-3

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add applet.
2.Click applet icon.
3.See no network connections.
    

Actual Results:  Dialog box said there was no network devices.

Expected Results:  Should have shown link quality, AP's SSID, etc.
