OK, I have to revert the message about network manager... Today it also
failed on me with the 2.6.33-based kernel.

I found out that it's not a fault of nm-applet (it is irritating that it
just does not show up when there is trouble) ... but rather sometimes
the network manager daemon seems to be ill. On some boots it is not
properly present.

service network-manager restart

usually helps to bring the nm-applet icon back and also restores
functionality. It is generally frustrating that the system is not very
verbose about whatever bothers it... nm-applet should draw an icon and
tell me "Network Manager is there but does not talk to me". When started
from terminal, it prints something about missing dbus service...

Shall I make a separate bug report on that? Or should this one here get
tagged for network-manager? Concerning the linux-rt kernel, at least the
point about default graphics being messed up still applies. But the
network-manager thing is apparently not specific to the kernel version.
