I simultaneously reported bug info for xfce4-panel as well: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-panel/+bug/1287084 I do think, btw, that this should be down as a security vulnerability. The bug has left me as a simple user without any control over my network aside from the switch on the wall. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1287080 Title: network manager icon disappeared To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1287080/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Xubuntu 13.04 has reached EOL recently and is not supported anymore.

[Bug 1287080] Re: network manager icon disappeared
Ignoring this EOL business for now, here's a quick fix, the problem and the solution. The quick fix is miraculous, really. You just type nm-applet on the command line. The problem was that Network Manager was deselected in Session Startup Dialogue. I probably did this and forgot all about it. So, technically speaking, there was no bug that lost the applet icon. Just my own dumb ass. But it is still the case that the nm-applet does not appear in the list of programs you can add the control panel when you right-click on it. This is a problem in case it does get lost. Or what do you do to stop it connecting automatically at start-up without losing it altogether? (That's a rhetorical question). So I hope this report has not been an entire waste of time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1287080 Title: network manager icon disappeared To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/1287080/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
