Question

Can anyone provide an example how the SlidingMenu – many thanks to Jeremy Feinstein for developing such a great library – can be enabled with a ListActivity?

If I have a FragmentActivity I can set the content of the SlidingMenu:

setBehindContentView(R.layout.menu_frame);
FragmentTransaction t = this.getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
mFrag = new SampleListFragment();
t.replace(R.id.menu_frame, mFrag);
t.commit();

But this is not possible with ListActivity because I have no access to getSupportFragmentManager().

Is there a solution?
