I've been having this problem in my installations since I began using Ubuntu seriously back in Jan. of this year (started with 12.10 (Quantal) and has carried through to 13.04 (Raring), fresh install of both). The only solution I've seen short of a restart is to kill the nm-applet process and restart it.
Most often it happens to me my laptop comes out of suspend or hibernation. I use a Sony Vaio VGN-FW270J running 13.04. A thread on the ubuntu forums has been discussing it for some time. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2103302 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208858 Title: vpn submenu empty in network manager menu To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-openvpn/+bug/1208858/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
