Package: network-manager-gnome Version: 0.6.4-6 Its taken me ages to get network-manager-gnome working because I didn't read the documentation for network-manager. This could have been alleviated by a short README.Debian. The critical things to know are that it will appear automatically in the Notification Area and that you need to be in the netdev group.
Here is my proposed README.Debian: 'network-manager-gnome provides a Notification Area applet for conveniently choosing wired and wireless networks in GNOME, KDE and XFCE. network-manager-gnome (by virtue of the fact it uses network-manager) requires users to be in the group 'netdev' for it to work. If users aren't in the group 'netdev' then it won't automatically appear, and work, in the Notification Area. network-manager-gnome uses network-manager. Please see the network-mananger documentation in /usr/share/doc/network-manager/README.Debian for further information.'
