Bug Description
1) Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04
2) Package is not found in Synaptic.
3) I expect that program managing the wireless network connection (nm-applet) is started on every startup and detects a working wireless networking device.
4) The program sometimes does not start on startup despite being a startup program. So one need to start it manually which sometimes does not work as well. But the most important problem is that when nm-applet starts it is often disabled and cannot be activated. It says "Network connection disabled". The only possibility to get a working wireless connection is to reboot and hope that nm-applet starts activated. So sometimes I need to restart up to four times to get a working connection.
