Comment 2 for bug 295406

Thanks Felipe, but I get:
** (nm-applet:8674): WARNING **: <WARN> applet_dbus_manager_start_service(): Could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it is already taken. Return: 3

(nm-applet:8674): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

Try "sudo killall NetworkManager"
Then "sudo gdb NetworkManager"

Then, when you get "(gdb)" enter "run"

That gets my applet on, but I don't know if it works yet, as I haven't got wireless here.
