Cannot Connect to Network since update NetworkManager

Tue May 31 13:16:20 UTC 2011

This is broken for me too, and only broke after the May 26 update to
NetworkManager (0.8.999-3.git20110526.fc15).  See bug here too:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708626

It "works" for wifi only if you delete all the things as said below, but if
you try adding a VPN connection it breaks again.  It is very fragile :-/  I
wasted many hours on Sunday trying to resurrect my laptop.
