Re: NM Install fails. dbus?

No there is a section like this:
<policy user="default">
        <deny own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <deny send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
        <deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>

Change the deny's to allow's but I think that allows any user to make
changes to NetworkManager which may not be safe.
