I have the exact same problem. Shot in the dark: GDM settings are now hidden away in the gdm user's gconf settings (grumble grumble). Maybe NetworkManager looks in root's keyring for system-connection passwords? -- Password doesn't get saved in system-wide pptp connection

I find this annoying, too. It used to be that an icon would appear in the Notification Area, and clicking that icon would bring up the Update Manager window on your current workspace. I liked that way better. My workaround is to right-click the pulsing [Update Manager] button in the window list,
