NetworkManager applet: force connection list refresh

[Pedro Francisco]

Killing nm-applet won't work as Gnome-Shell doesn't use (though it is loaded
it doesn't do anything)

But «service NetworkManager restart» does work.

I now have the following lines and seems to be working (sleep time is still
under test :p)

Thank you!

# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vodafone-fix.rules
KERNEL=="usb0", RUN+="vodafone-fix.sh"


# cat /lib/udev/vodafone-fix.sh
#!/bin/sh

eject /dev/sr1
/sbin/ifconfig usb0 -arp

sleep 10
service NetworkManager restart
