Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: modemmanager

There is a mobile broadband modem built in my machine (Dell Mini 10).
When i boot into Ubuntu, the 3g section of the network manager systray
menu does not appear. But when i stop network-manager, and then restart
it, the 3g section appears, and i can connect to the 3g network.

So the workaround is:
sudo stop network-manager && sleep 2 && sudo start network-manager

When i write "restart network-manager", the systray icon disappears, so
i have to do stop, wait, and then start.

The attached network manager log shows the following procedure:
- starting ubuntu
- stopping network-manager
- starting network-manager
- connection to mobile broadband connection
- disconnecting mobile broadband.

When following the process described in
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingNetworkManager (section Serial Log
(Mobile Broadband)) everything goes fine, the problem disappears. So I
think that the modem-manager is not started properly on normal boot.
