NM do not see any network

[<nicola tessari infinito it>]

Hello,

I am on Ubuntu 6.10, my wireless card is detected, but the 
NM daemon says:

NetworkManager: <information>   starting...
NetworkManager: <WARNING>        nm_dbus_init (): 
nm_dbus_init() could not acquire the NetworkManager 
service as it is already taken (ret=3). Is the daemon 
already running?
NetworkManager: <ERROR> [1165426945.917538] main (): 
nm_dbus_init() failed, exiting. Either dbus is not 
running, or the NetworkManager dbus security policy was 
not loaded.
NetworkManager: traceback:
NetworkManager:         NetworkManager(main+0x47f) 
[0x80681af]
NetworkManager: 
       /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xdc) 
[0xb7c3f8cc]
NetworkManager:         NetworkManager [0x80530a1]
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)


I cannot understand what happens, is someone can help me, 
I would be grateful,

Ciao,
Nicola
