Me again - the norwegian grumbler. I would have liked to test what Mal told me - and - ok my educational background tells me not to swear. I can not move the icons. if I switch between languages - it always remains on default. (and I need 4 languages). so please again - do something about it.

Great idea, Mal. I'd love to try it out myself but it looks like it's no longer affecting me. I've reverted my workaround for kicks after all this time and I get basically no corruption anymore. Nor do I really have access to a machine that has corruption regularly enough - They all happen

I hitted this one with a guy I installed Lucid for, and I got good results restarting the NetworkManager service. The icon is there, it only doesn't display anything. The NetworkManager service restart forces the icon to update itself. Maybe you are loading the NetworkManager service too early...
