Bug Description

I have wireless connection on Xubuntu 8.04.1, my wireless USB adaptor is 100% compatible with Linux, no need for drivers. However, when I go into hibernation, and then go back to the desktop after hibernation, the network manager icon in the system tray thinks I'm using a wired connect. However, my Internet works fine. I have never used wired connection on this computer, my wired connection ethernet port does not even work.

I'm using Xfce 4.4.2 & nm-applet 0.6.6

(please note, I would have put the package as nm-applet but launchpad is saying that the package doesn't exist, so I had to put "I don't know")
