Did you just install nm-applet? Usually you have to go into the System
Administration Networking and disable the devices by clicking on them
and hitting properties, then uncheck the enable this connection box.
Log out then Log back in and it should detect them/take over controlling
them.

Thanks for your suggestion, it didn't work though. When I unticked (disabled)
eth0 from System-Network-Connections, my /etc/network/interfaces was
modified accordingly (auto eth0 was removed). Then I re-enabled eth0 (auto eth0
was added back), but NetworkManager Applet still refuses to find
/usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian contains excerpt:
Configuration of wireless and ethernet interfaces
~
Only devices that are *not* listed in /etc/network/interfaces or which have
been configured auto and dhcp (with no other options) are
I'm going to close the bug then, thanks for pointing that out.
