Bug Description

When one is using the tool to automatically remember wireless passwords, the first time one tries to access a wireless network, a pop-up box appears asking for the master key for all wireless passwords.
This conflicts with Network Manager tool.
If one clicks on the network manager tool, a "drop down" appears showing all available wireless networks.
If that "drop down" is displayed, then the pop-up box appears for the master key, no mouse or keyboard input is possible.
There must be some sort of deadlock.
restarting gdm recovers from this situation, but it logs one out.

Is there something else I should use instead to remember my wireless passwords?
