Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

1. everything works fine when connected via cat5, so start up with that.
2. nm-applet shows in the tray as expected
3. click the nm-applet icon and select a wireless access point (i happen to be selecting one that is WPA protected).
4. after setting up the keyring association, click "allow once" or "always allow" and notice that the tray icon disappears.

i assume this is a crash within nm-applet. sorry if this is not the right place for reporting gutsy bugs. just trying to help out with the tribe 1 QA.

This is not an issue with open wireless access points. I cannot confirm if it is an issue with WEP protected APs. I'm only able to vouch for the problem on WPA (PSK) protected APs.
