I am also seeing this after upgrading my main laptop from 14.04 LTE to
14.10.  The fix for me is to sudo service start network-manager after I
log in.  While this is the first release upgrade show-stopper I've seen
since the 6.04 -> 8.04 mishegas, this says to me that the testers are
not using the same environment those of us who are seeing it use - if I
had to guess, they're testing in a server environment (fine for LTE
releases) and not Ubuntu-as-desktop.    I'm wagering that the ugly hack
of adding "service network-manager start" (or /etc/init.d/network-
manager start) to /etc/rc.local is a work-around.
