Do you have nm-applet installed? I don't think this is a dependency of gnome if USE=networkmanager ...
If it is installed, then we'll have to look at your ~/.Xsession-errors and see why it's not running... typically dbus errors but that's not my expertise... _________________ Intel Core i7 2700K/Radeon R7 250/24GB DDR3/256GB SSD

Hello,
I had not installed nm-applet, but I installed and it still does not work. I tried to see Xsession-erros, but there isn't any file with this name. How can I see ~/.Xsession-errors?
Thanks. |

Oops, it's .xsession-errors (without the capitalization). Go into the home directory of whatever user you're logged in as, it should be there.
You can also try running nm-applet at the command line to see what it does, it should pop up the icon in the "tray"... _________________ Intel Core i7 2700K/Radeon R7 250/24GB DDR3/256GB SSD

The problem was that I built the kernel without wireless extensions support. Now it's ok, but I'm using ethernet connection and if I use "/etc/init.d/NetworkManager start", my ethernet connection break and nm-applet appers on the try. The nm-applet show that exist one eth0 connection and show wireless connections around, but the nm-applet does not connect to eth0 and wireless too. If I click on eth0, the nm-applet not connect. And if I click on wireless then the system request the wireless password I write the password but the nm-applet does not connect and the internet works about 10 seconds and breaks, 5 seconds it's reconnects and 10 seconds after breaks again, forming one loop. I think that was some conflict. So I have to stop the NetworkManager and use "ifconfig eth0 up" .
Thanks. |

Make sure the regular ethernet config and networkmanager aren't conflicting.

This will have problems when both are fighting for control over DHCP on the interface. _________________ Intel Core i7 2700K/Radeon R7 250/24GB DDR3/256GB SSD

The problem was that dhcpcd was in conflict with NetwotkManager. I unmerged dhcpcd and so my internet stops to works, then I use lived with chroot and remerged dhcpcd. After it my NetworkManager starts to works, but I don't know why. |
