vpn makes nm applet go away ... but works.

2006-12-11 Thread Robert G. Brown
I just upgraded to FC6 (partly to get access to the latest/greatest in terms of vpn and NM). I got NM working fairly smoothly again, although it still has a tendency to not come back up clean after a suspend (it's not the only thing -- video has hung several times as well but I'm assuming all of t
