Considering that NM  activates (and fails) during network startup well 
before GNOME ever gets into the picture, I doubt that it works any 
better there.  Does GNOME 3 function with the older drakx support ?  If 
so, could the requires for NM simply be removed until it works ?

</I>Then why does it continue to try to manage my interfaces whether or not 
I disable support in the ifcfg-wlan0 ?  Others have confirmed the same 
behavior.  I'm not sure what significance &quot;not being the default&quot; has 
here, unless you mean that we still provide support for the drakx stuff.

Whether or not it is the default, just having it installed (or possibly 
started by init, based on comments in the bug) is sufficient to break 
wireless on many systems.
