% nm-tool

NetworkManager Tool

State: connected

- Device: lan0  [Ifupdown (lan0)] ----------------------------------------------
  Type:              Wired
  Driver:            tg3
  State:             connected
  Default:           yes
  HW Address:        00:19:B9:00:BF:B3

  Capabilities:
    Carrier Detect:  yes
    Speed:           100 Mb/s

  Wired Properties
    Carrier:         on

 [...]

At the moment I cannot remotely start NetworkManager --no-daemon because
this would mean losing the current connection which doesn't work very
well remote.  :) But there are no errors in the logs, it is just
connected via LAN.

About the screenshot, I have attached it to the forwarded bug on
bugzilla.

Thanks,
Paul
