NetworkManager .7 with nm-applet .7 not working

[Joshua Lutz <josh lutz com>]

I built both from SVN and it appears that NM runs, as evidenced below
(presumably from my .6 config) and by the fact my networking still
works:

root taggie-laptop:~# nm-tool

When I try to launch nm-applet, I get the following from console:

taggie taggie-laptop:~$ nm-applet 
** Message: NM appeared

** (nm-applet:8721): WARNING **: Error in device_get_property: Method
"Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties"
doesn't exist



** (nm-applet:8721): WARNING **: Error in get_devices: Method
"GetDevices" with signature "" on interface
"org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" doesn't exist

The applet shows up, but denies having any network devices.

Is this most likely a dbus problem with NM .7? When I use dbus-viewer, I
can't see anything resembling org.freedesktop.NetworkManager So I
definitely believe the applet's error messages. 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
