updated Netbook to Lucid -- NetworkManager is disabled

[sambu toki]

I just want to mention that I am having this same problem in Debian Unstable
w/ KDE 4.3.4 and KNW (as well as Lucid).  The fix for me was to simply
modify NetworkManager.state manually to set NetworkingEnabled=true .  No
problems since then (yet).  This happened immediately after updating my
system yesterday (in Debian).  Maybe just a minor bug in the way
NetworkManager.state gets reconfigured?
