NM 0.8? Or NM 0.7?
0.7.1
For 0.7, run 'lshal' and look for device blocks with 'wlan0' in them.
If you see two, then it's a hal problem (though we've seen cases where
VirtualBox in it's misguided attempts to virtualize /sys completely
screws over HAL).
There's nothing in lshal referring to wlan0, but the entries that
correspond to the duplicates in DBus are below. I do have VirtualBox, but
this happens at boot before I start any VBox sessions (although there is a
VBox kernel module, I don't know if this is screwing up).
