Do not use asac's ppa nm-0.7 packages!!!
They works even worse than 0.6.6 and removing them is not easy (at least for a newbie).
Probably packages are very old (20080121) and they really needs to be updated!
Foresight : NetworkManager=0.7.0.r3332-0.1-1
Fedora9 : NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.9.3.svn3623
I've tried both Foresight 2.0 an Fedora9 and NM works great and out-of-the-box for me.
I know that we'll have the same features in Intrepid, but I hope that in the meantime someone will provide working backport/ppa packages. Thanks!
