I too get the same error as L3x and I use wicd:

~$ ubuntuone-client-applet --signup
ERROR:dbus.proxies:Introspect error on org.freedesktop.NetworkManager:/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: dbus.exceptions.DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManager was not provided by any .service files

Sounds like an implicit dependency on NetworkManager?

This is on Jaunty using ubuntuone-ppa-beta updated today Oct24-2009.

NetworkManager ran ok and I liked its variety of wireless and wired config options, but on my Intel integrated chipset, NetworkManager wouldn't hold onto wireless connections well enough...kept dropping them randomly. I find Wicd holds onto the assigned connection and doesn't suddenly drop it.
