	I had one experience with that Network Manager such that I would never
even try it again, even at gun point.  It committed such random acts of
terrorism (broke all my existing connections, totally torched my routing
tables, and absolutely refused to be unloaded) that I had to reboot my
entire laptop to get it off my system and reestablish my wired
connection.  I now manage all my wireless using wpa_supplicant (which
handles WEP and WPA-* and WPA2-*) and have yet to figure out what anyone
would even want the Network (Mis)Manager app for unless they were
gluttons for punishment.

	Sorry for the rant.  An extremely distasteful experience...

	Mike
