Bug Description
I'm using network-manager on a laptop with only wi-fi available. When I log into my session, I click the network-manager applet in the top panel, and it only has the following options:
Enable Networking [checked]
Enable Wireless [checked]
Connection Information
Edit Connections
Meanwhile the laptop's wi-fi LED is flashing away, and if I click Connection Information it shows that I'm connected to my usual network.
If I use the wi-fi killswitch (which the touch-sensitive wi-fi LED indicator on my HP EliteBook 8540p) to turn off and on the wireless hardware, the menu then becomes populated with all the available networks, the VPN Connections submenu, and so on.
