Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Immediately after booting GNOME, nm will fetch the password to my wireless network from the keyring. The key name it actually requests appears to be an empty string (according to the dialogue, as it has no permission for *this*) and nm crashes afterwards. After some time, it will stop crashing and be able to establish a network connection - for less than a second. After some time, this behaviour stops and nm will connect without problems.
I'm not entirely sure about it but it appeared to me that not waiting but rather disabling every program attempting to send data to the network will fix this behaviour.
System:
Ubuntu 7.10
network-manager: 0.6.5-0ubuntu2

Hardware:
Fritz! WLAN USB, using ndiswrapper driver (worked perfectly with 6.10 and 7.04), as fwlanusb driver would not compile/fail to work
looks like a dupe of bug 121228 ... which has a fix uploaded already. If you still see the bug after tribe-2 is out feel free to undupe this bug.
