nm-applet / vpnc / pptp / openvpn

[Geronimo Wheeler <spacecakex gmail com>]

Hi,

I've succesfullly installed Networkmanager and nm-applet with all the plugins under Gnome / Kde-4-3 using the instructions can be found at gentoo-wiki. It is working perfectly for wired and wireless LAN but not for any VPN (this part of the applet is grey

I was searching the archive and googled this thing but I cannot find a solution, so I decided to ask you :)

I suppose this is some problem with the dbus registration of the plugins, but I'm not sure
