I have a problem with my Network Manager. Its been broken for acouple of weeks, not sure when. The computer is static, but I use NM to run the pptp package. However, at the moment if I start NM it has the 'enable networking' box greyed out and will not start.

This might be to do with a bridge network used for internal KVM guests - but it was all playing fine a month or two ago. If I don't use NM all works fine.
I tried deleting the eth0 from system-config-network. I don't like to do the same for the Br as I am not sure how to remake it. But I can try if people think I should. It was a bit fiddly making the host machine export NFS disks to the guests; I think I needed this for that.
Any suggestions?
I suggest you enable NM by editing /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.state by hand. The nm-applet fix will be along Real Soon Now.
