Review request for Plasma.


Changes
-------

uploaded the diff again, fixed base directory


Summary
-------

The System Monitor - Network applet is not aware of any new interfaces added, i.e. if a dial-up modem is connected, ppp0 didn't show up in the interfaces list until the applet is closed and started again.
This patch enables the applet to be aware of such changes, and update the list accordingly.


This addresses bug 184893.

Testing

Tested with a dial-up modem. List is updated in 2 seconds after the new interface comes into existence, or is disconnected.


Thanks,
