After upgrading from 8.04.1 to 8.10 this is still a problem for me as well. I have implement all the changes mention above, plus installed the latest nm from launchpad

nickh@nickh-desktop:~$ apt-cache policy network-manager-gnome
network-manager-gnome:
  Installed: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.7~~svn20081020t000444-0ubuntu1
  Version table:

The machine is an HP DC7800 Quad core desktop machine. The applet shows as running, but there no icon on the task bar. When I have been able to get it too appear temporarily it shows the network as being down.

I'm using a static IP address, and it works perfectly ( thus this post), and I can change network settings by manually running the nm-connection-editor.
