[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#574334: No more network on squeeze with kde|gnome-network-manager applet : "network manager disable"

[mourad]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

I had a very bad surprise today, it was my first cold reboot (without hibernate or standby) since a week.

kde network manager stopped working saying that network-manager is disable !

I tryed to restart it, just in case, but no success.

I remove kde-network-manager to install gnome network-manager in replacement, but no more success (the message is "network is disable")...

I don't know where it could come, I have that logs when I restart network manager :
