yes... actually what was happening was the icon was hidden... and still is... :( I removed the Notification Area and added it again in the middle of the top panel.... but stangelly, after logout-login, even in the middle, the icon is almost invisivle... only a vertical stripe of 1 or 2 pixels width is visible... something like: ---------------------------- || oo || oo || o || || || || --------------------------- the o's being the visible part of the nm-applet icon !!! :) I don't know why this happens; but it's consistent; I created a new user and did logout-login and the icon gets hidden or something cuts it; I remove the notification bar, I add it again, and it's ok; then I logout-login and it's cut again :P This is Edubuntu-10.04 but the visible part is large enough to allow a minimum interaction; BTW the red (o) shutdown, restart, etc button also goes missing :P a mess...
