[Bug 280978] Re: KNetworkManager and nm-applet both start if gnome and kde are installed

[tony.damato]

Well, I've got three installations which this affects - all three were
upgrades from 8.04 to 8.10 and kubuntu-desktop added. Here's what I did
to fix it (at least, it works for me):

* Edited /etc/xdg/autostart/knetworkmanager-autostart.desktop and added
the following line:

OnlyShowIn=KDE;

* Edited /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop and added the following
line:

OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;

* Issued "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" to switch to gdm, rebooted, logged
in as GNOME session, and then only nm-applet appeared.

* Issued "sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm" to switch to kdm, rebooted, logged
in as KDE session, and then only KNetworkManager appeared.

I didn't test w/ XFCE, but I'm sure it'll work there as well. As always,
your mileage may vary...
