 |
|
Hello,
After last week updates I have disovered that the icon of network manager applet (gnome-extra/nm-applet)
is not shown any more in the system tray area.
But nm-applet is defenetly running. I see it in the list of processes and
in the "Session and Startup" window.
In the list of updates (emerge.log) that may be influence on that are

On the forum i found the same problem is already discussed here. But there was no final solution.
I don't think the full rebuild is a right way. Smelling "your Windows is glitching?? Restart it!"
On my site i have XFCE environment, stable portage, nothing special.
Did anybody face of that behaviour?
Or problem is only with settings on my system.
I don't want posting a bug yet.
Thanks

Two things off the top of my head:
1. Is /etc/init.d/NetworkManager running?
2. If you create a new user and log in, do you still have this issue?

Yes, NetworkManager is running.
The problem was on my site only. I found the solution, but not reasons.
For some circumstances the plugin libsystray.so from xfce4-panel failed to start. And also I didn't see it in the XFCE Panel configuration window.
After i have rebuilt the xfce4-panel and re-enabled systray plugin in the panel configuration all icons including nm-applet was shown nicely.
I couldn't repeat the erroneous state of systray plugin so couldn't determine what was the reason of this behaviour.
Problem solved.
Thanks a lot! |
