I suggest using the GTK nm-applet for now. At least on Ubuntu Precise,
everything works perfectly when just running nm-applet in a Trinity
session. I haven't encountered a single problem yet with it. I do not
think it would be wise to try to replace network-manager, because there
do not seem to be any alternatives with a comparable amount of features.
