I have noticed that the applet does come up on plugging in a wireless PC card,
however I dont see that behaviour for builtin wireless cards, though, IMHO,
they should work the same way.
I am *hoping* that NetworkManager will be good enough soon to solve
these issues.
Its my single most desired RFE for linux. Going from office to home to
Starbucks,
I have to manually change settings and log out of X (because xauth does not
allow display to new hostname).

Plus, if I save my session settings then I get n+1 NetworkManagerInfo processes the next time I log in. Since originally I had my session settings saved automatically they began to pile up. Now that I've turned session setting save "off" its much better. -- I think Dan may be working on that -- if I've read the NetworkManger list right. On a positive note, though I would say that in terms of being smart about stuff I've found NetworkManager to be better than netapplet - like if my wired connection is plugged in an I don't have a wireless connection or card it brings up the wired connection just like I would want it to. So that is a win in the "just works" column.
