I have read that the NetworkManager is supposed to be capable of creating a hotspot in access point mode since version 0.9.8. I've got the NetworkManager installed that comes with Trusty Tahr (version 0.9.8.8). My networkcard supports AP. But I can't find an option in NetworkManager to create an access point mode hotspot. Maybe I'm missing a package? Or maybe I'm just too stupid to use the GUI properly?

[... not relevant anymore]

Ya looks like the new GUI is still missing AP mode. Fortunately you can use KDE's connection manager as described here
