Hi, So, NetworkManager has been working great for me for weeks in Ubuntu Feisty Fawn and months in Ubuntu Dapper Drake.
Then, 3 days ago, it started to crash at start-up for no apparent reason. I first thought the last kernel update was responsible, but booting a prior kernel leads to the same problem. Here is what I find in my logs: Jun 10 12:11:45 Mario NetworkManager: <information>^Istarting...

Can anybody help me get to the bottom of this mystery? Tell me what information you need. Thanks.
