That did the trick. Now how does that get integrated into the distro? I've never had success on reporting bugs, etc.

                        I'd like to stop this nuisance of the disappearing
                        access to this
                        important applet, but, how?


                    Is there a file nm-applet.desktop under the directory
                    /etc/xdg/autostart?

                    If not, try install the package network-manager-gnome.

                    Regards,
                    ST

                ST:

                Yes, the file is there. Network-manager-gnome is up-to-date.
                For good
                measure, I re-installed, to no avail.


            Is the indicator plugin installed/working? Maybe that's the cause.

            Another possible cause is with the sessions. Please check with the
            settings manager.

            BTW, replying to the list is sufficient.

        What is the indicator plugin? I do see other icons on Panel 1. No
        Network icon is available to add when I go to Panel > Properties > *Add
        New Items.


    Package xfce4-indicator-plugin. If it's installed, the icon of the
    running nm-applet will appears there. Please check Settings Manager |
    Panel | Items to see if it's already added.


        I see nothing in Settings Manager that I can relate to this problem.


    Check under Settings Manager | Session and Startup | Application
    Autostart to see if nm-applet is enabled.
