Ran NetworkManager manually on the machine. On every run the following
shows up in dmesg

[19456.972855] traps: NetworkManager[5497] general protection ip:469f8e
sp:7ffeab94c1f0 error:0 in NetworkManager[400000+10c000]

and in the terminal:

(NetworkManager:5508): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a
previous GError or uninitialized memory.
This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL
before it's set.
The overwriting error message was: Key file does not have group
'connectivity'

Not sure which key file it is talking about so no idea where to look.
