Binary package hint: network-config

I have a new Lenovo ThinkPad X61 with the Intel 4965 wireless chipset. The network manager applet in Gutsy recognizes the wireless device and configures it properly, which is the main reason I installed Gutsy Beta rather than waiting for release. However, once it connects to the wireless network, it refuses to switch back to the wired network, and when I choose the "manual configuration" option (which I think is the network-config package), the app hangs. It opens a new window which is supposed to show my network devices and allow me to configure them, but the window contains no text or options, and I have to "force-quit" it. I can still manage the network devices from the command line, but the panel applet does not update after I do so and is now out of sync with the real configuration.
