Dan,

Thanks, I was running into the autoconnect problem. I ran gconf-editor and 
checked
autoconnect for my eth0 and it now connects just fine. But, I'm still seeing:

Oct 15 22:01:15 localhost NetworkManager: <info>  Trying to start the 
supplicant...
Oct 15 22:02:21 localhost NetworkManager:last message repeated 11 times

I am running a current rawhide and made a pass through /etc and fixed some out 
of
date configs (bitten by .rpmnew), but I'm still not seeing my iwl3945 wlan 
connection
in the NM applet (and I do on same kernel(s) with f7 NM/wpa_supplicant/et al).

Anything I should turn on wrt NM debugging?

Clark
