Dear Michael, Luckily this problem did not occur again. I restarted my machine after the fill-up which caused several programs to not respond anymore in order to investigate what was going on.

Currently there is a modem-manager process running and everything seems fine again. Checking the logs reveals the following messages: """ Feb 11 06:55:51 mamma NetworkManager: <info> starting...

""" > Was this directly after installing modemmanager? Yes it was directly after installing the updates with "aptitude safe-upgrade" (and modemmanager came along with them). > What lead to this bug, where you upgrading your system or something > similar?

Maybe it was some race condition that occurred right after the update that caused the problem and rebooting the system (and thus restarting the network- manager and dbus too) helped to fix it. It was quite surprising to find my system in a (for me) somewhat unusable state after some updates. Furthermore I know that without being able to reproduce this issue, fixing it for others that install this package is tough. But unfortunately I cannot provide more information about it.
