This is the applet, right?
Take a look at gnome/applet/applet-dbus-devices.c,
nma_dbus_device_properties_cb(). The code looks like this:
/* Call the "getProperties" method on each wireless network the device
may have. */
if (num_networks > 0) {
char ** item;
for (item = networks; *item; item++)
nma_dbus_device_update_one_network (applet, op, *item,
active_network_path);
}
you might try printing out what NM returns in the network list (ie,
print the value of "*item" inside the for loop), or using 'nm-tool' to
see what NM reports. Or
dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
--print-reply /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/ath0 \
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Devices.getProperties
See if any of the network object paths look funny.
