I'm having the same problem, let me explain:

I install etch on a Dell Latitude D600 and also on a P4 desktop.
NetworkManager was working normally: detects interfaces and connect to
differents networks. Wifi was ok too.

Then i upload to lenny (and to sid after that) and NetworkManager don't
detect any interface, nor in lenny, nor in sid. But i can use them
through ifconfig/iwconfig. I restart dbus and still don't detect any interface.

Here is the oputpu of some commands that could be helpful:

volatile:~# nm-tool 

NetworkManager Tool

State: disconnected

print_devices(): didn't get a reply from NetworkManager.
There are no available network devices.

I don't use any special script, just plain Etch install (from cd1), and after 
that point my /etc/apt/sources.list to sid and upgrade it.

I will try in other laptop to see if the problem persist, there is any
additional information that you need?
