Have to say I'm seeing the same as Mikus, the auto-assigned icons do not appear 
in the frame.  The wireless ones, the 3G modems do appear, and the USB when 
hooked to a DHCP providing ethernet router do.  But on any of the XO 1s and 
1.5s at 852 using the avahi workaround , they do not .  Also I was able to 'get 
online' and share with chat when wireless, but not when cross-over connected 
with the avahi workaround, even though the machines do show in the network view 
map.

The code for the frame only shows network interfaces managed by Network
Manager.
