I'm up to Intrepid Ibex with a fresh install.
How do I kill the "Connection Established" popup that appears every time I startup and the network manager connects to the wireless access point?

you might not want to disable the notification "balloon" (libnotify) system wide as many programs do use it.
Removing libnotify doesn't seem a good idea...
Btw I'm using Jaunty.$ sudo apt-get remove libnotify1

EDIT:
Removing notify-osd is also not possible without removing a few other gnome components:
I'll try with a chmod -x ...$ sudo apt-get purge notify-osd

Ok, if anyone else is looking for a solution I managed to disable (not remove) notify-osd with a simple:
btw, there's a dozen pages long bug report at launchpad on this issue...sudo chmod -x /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd
pkill notify-osd
I looked around a bit on this Bug. I've just Upgraded to Karmic, but this still seems to be an issue, for some reason.
Seems that "Notifications" has been discussed in several places, and quite a while ago...
http://old.nabble.com/can%27t-disabl...d20494015.html
The Bug reports suggest that nm-appler 0.7 had an option added to surpress non-critical notifications, but I don't seem to see that in Karmic. So, the current work around is...
Code:gconf-editor /apps/nm-applet/ disable-connected-notifications [x] 'mark as TRUE disable-disconnected-notifications [x] 'mark as TRUE
I've also noticed that when I resume from Standby, I usually get a Disconnected notification. So the fix I listed earlier apparently isn't perfect.
Whenever I automatically connect to a network I get the popup we're talking about. It shows up in the upper right corner of my screen.
I assume it shows up there because the default panel location is along the top of the screen.
I keep my panel on the left (vertical space is more valuable to me than horizontal space), but the popup still shows in the upper right hand corner, which looks pretty silly.
I'd be interested in any way to disable the notification as well.
By the way, I'm using Karmic.
Edit: tried ScottHW's workaround, doesn't seem to be working for me. Still get 'em whenever connecting of disconnecting, not just while going on standby. (thanks though!)
