http://ubuntuforums.org – I'm on lubuntu 12.04 i386 here (but the problem apparently seems the same for 12.04 ppc as well). The bluetooth-applet does not appear automatically after the startup (like the wireless or sound icon e.g.) in the panel's notification area although it's activated in Desktop > Preferences > Startup applications. What i did up to now: I edited the 'bluetooth-applet.desktop' file in '/etc/xdg/autostart' in the way that NoDisplay=True was changed to False and i cancelled all restrictions to Gnome3 or Unity. But without any affect. I created an autostart.sh file in '/etc' containing also (Hardware)

Internet shuts down 40 weeks 5 days ago

The last 2 days the internet connection fails, or shuts down, on my laptop when downloading some stuff from the internet.

Hi,

Having an annoying problem. The WiFi and Bluetooth icons are missing. I have tried to load nm-applet and I get the following.

** Message: applet now removed from the notification area ** Message: using fallback from indicator to GtkStatusIcon

I can still configure from the settings menu, but I would love to get nm-applet back.

Anyone have any suggestions.

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.

Indicator applet in MATE 36 weeks 5 days ago

I hate gnome3, so I installed MATE (gnome2 fork) in my Ubuntu 12.04 desktop. It's pretty good, but I have a problem: it doesn’t have (or I haven't found) a working indicator applet on the top panel.
