Tobias,

Thanks, and I did do (now the 0.6.3-2ubuntu6 is installed), but then NM 
does not detect any wirelesscard.

I tried to compile 0.6.4, but the compiltion fails with :
gcc -g -O2 -o .libs/libnm_glib_test libnm_glib_test.o -pthread  
../utils/.libs/libnmutils.a ../gnome/libnm_glib/.libs/libnm_glib.so 
-ldbus-glib-1 -ldbus-1 /usr/lib/libgthread-2.0.so -lpthread 
/usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so -lrt
../gnome/libnm_glib/.libs/libnm_glib.so: undefined reference to 
`dbus_connection_disconnect'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [libnm_glib_test] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/softs/NM/NetworkManager-0.6.4/test'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/softs/NM/NetworkManager-0.6.4/test'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/softs/NM/NetworkManager-0.6.4'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Joan
