[ale] NetMan Question

[Jim Kinney]

Try deleting ~/.gcond/saved_state from a command line while NOT logged into
X. Then log back in.

Network Manager got fickle on me and  think that worked. If not it was
deletion of the entire .gconf dir from a cli then log back in.

NetworkManager is run through messagebus which is dbus. That chain talks to
the nm-applet which is the missing component. Manually starting it seems to
be not good.

 Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by
faith, then you are conceding that it can’t be taken on its own merits.
