I have the same problem. I run xubuntu 12.04 upgraded from 10.04. I found that the icon only where missing at my own (and only) account. But if I created a new account the icons showed corrrectly. Therefore I suspected that the problem was related to the user settings, but i don't know what file.
On the other hand, it also presented a workaround! I created another account with sudo rights (add user to sudo user group). From the new accout I moved all my documents and obvisly not affected settings from my home folder to a new place. (Ex /home/savedstuff). Then I deleted ever single file in my home folder. Then I logged in as myself again, and xubuntu recreated al my settings to the default one, including the missing icon. Then I could copy all my files back to my home folder again. Dont forget to change back the ownership of the files, wich might have changed. Can someone find wich file that stores the information i question? /Kenneth -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager-applet in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/983773 Title: While using mobile broadband connection, no icon is shown in Xubuntu Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: I have no idea if this is xfce panel releated. The applet appears to work OK but when a mobile broadband connection is established, there is no icon displayed in the xfce panel. All other functionality seems OK. If I disconnect there is again an icon. Also sometimes after I disconnect I cannot reconnect again until I unplug and plug the broadband huawei USB device.
