Hi, In an Ubuntu Trusty home made with the mini.iso and a full Openbox environment, I also met with a missing nm-applet indicator along with a bug being the wired network working only just after boot, but never coming back when disconnected and reconnected during a X session.
I had also met it in a Live Lubuntu Trusty booted from USB on a eeepc where besides the wireless was working fine (but not the wired connection, when the wireless was used first, and wired added after, even if wireless would be deactivated). I fixed it in my Openbox branded version by modifying the content of the /etc/network/interfaces as shown here, in that bug report which is said to be a duplicate of here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/1301158/comments/12 I just switched the interfaces file with the one from my Ubuntu Precise install. I see in the comments above, it has also been talked about update- notifier : indeed, it does not work start in Trusty with Openbox here either, and I think it should show. Are there other bug reports elsewhere related to the start of update- notifier? I am going to try to find out. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1308348 Title: network settings indicator missing from panel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1308348/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
