Description of problem: After installing latest rawhide, including NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.2.svn2833.fc8, I no longer get the nice 'nm-applet' on gdm login. nm-applet is running in the background, but no icon: 5172 ?

S 0:00 /usr/libexec/gnome-vfs-daemon Killing this off and restarting from a text window yields, e.g.: ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database ** Message: NM appeared ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No connections defined ** (nm-applet:6161): WARNING **: No networks found in the configuration database Icon appears.
