It used to be gnome-power-manager or something of that sort, but now I can't seem to find it. When I run gnome-session from within awesome, it loads all the applets, i.e. nm-applet and the keyboard layout switcher, yet it doesn't load the battery applet, and so I'd like to launch it with a command.
Hi all,
After upgrading to Kubuntu 10.10 the icon for the gnome-network-manager (which I had installed instead of the former knetworkmanager) does not show up.
Although I can connect to the Internet, I am not able to set up my VPN without an icon showing up.
Checking at the terminal indicates that there is indeed something wrong here:
Code:
sovonet@sovonet:~$ nm-applet

(Ubuntu 10.04)
I've been struggling for over a week now to get the network-manager icon back in the notification applet. I don't exactly know how and when it disappeared, but I have not been able to get it back eversince.
i'm currently running gnome 3 with wicd as my internet interface...
I used to start "gnome-power-manager &" from the command line when launching the awesome wm to have a battery icon.
Since 12.04, the package gnome-power-manager exists but not the binary.
My main question is how to get the battery icon back, but maybe also what happened to the binary?
I'm using Ubuntu Precise with Gnome Shell on a Dell Latitude E6520 and I'm missing the battery status icon. When I run gnome-power-statistics then the battery info is displayed correctly so I'm sure Linux and Gnome can see the battery (So there is no ACPI problem).
I don't really understand why Ubuntu has two "notification area" style things that seem to serve the same functionality.
I can't use only one because some of the programs seem to only work with Notification Area (e.g. Orage) and some only work with Indicator Plugin (e.g. indicator-sound).
I have decided to replace Xfce4-power-manager with gnome-power-manager in Lubuntu 12.04 (didn't knew how to disable the tray icon in fact), which I did using synaptic, and now it shows:
But gnome-power-manager is nowhere to be found.
Searching for the file, I only see this:
There is only /usr/bin/gnome-power-statistics
Shouldn't be a gnome-power-manager executable and with options that shou
It looks like my recent upgrade from F12 to F17 has some surprises in store for me :)
Next up is gnome-power-manager: in F12 I was using sawfish stand alone but ran gnome-power-manager in order to have the power icon in the tray (for which I used stalonetray). But now in F17 I guess because of gnome3 there is no gnome-power-manager anymore.
