Please describe the problem:
The icon that displays the network status on the toolbar incorrectly displays
that it cannot find a network device, even after I manually set up the Ethernet
connection (I write this from the computer while it's telling me I have no
connection).

Steps to reproduce:
1. Log in
2. Click the Network Connection icon in the toolbar
3. 


Actual results:
Error message: "Please contact your system administrator to resolve the
following problem:

No network devices found"

As I said, this is obviously not right as I have a connection to the internet.

Expected results:
To tell me that eth0 is connected.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
It may be a problem from within Ubuntu's Dapper Drake Beta, but I'm unsure
because on GNOME-based Ubuntu, this happens, while on KDE-based Kubuntu, I
really don't have a connection.
