I'm using Ubuntu - the GNOME version.
I did a Hardy->Intrepid upgrade today (2008-10-26).
During the upgrade, I didn't get any dialog windows from NetworkManager.
But upon rebooting, there was no Network Manager applet in the GNOME panel,
and also no network - the NetworkManager daemon didn't try connecting by itself.
Bit hard to search for bug reports without it :-)
Also under "Add to Panel" there is no Network Manager applet or
equivalent. (There's a Network Monitor applet but that's different).
I ran nm-applet from a terminal window, then it appeared in the panel.
It spit out 5 messages like this:
** (nm-applet:10138): WARNING **: <WARN> constructor(): Invalid
connection: 'NMSettingConnection' / 'type' invalid: 3
Clicking on the icon, I found it had decided to disable networking.
(That explains why NetworkManager didn't connect by itself without
needing the applet).
I re-enabled networking, then selected a wireless access point, and it
was back to normal, i.e. before the upgrade.
