#238393 — Debian 11 Xfce - Applications -> Settings -> Network Connections missing

FromRoger Price <debian@rogerprice.org>
Date2021-08-09 17:20 +0200
SubjectDebian 11 Xfce - Applications -> Settings -> Network Connections missing
Message-ID<CKfeh-Ps-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
I'm trying to set up a Wi-Fi connection in Debian 11 with Xfce.  In previous 
Debian Xfce installations I found Applications -> Settings -> Network 
Connections which offered a useful GUI.  I can't find the Netwok Connections GUI 
in Debian 11.  Is there some additional package I need to install?

Command nmcli general reports that eth0 and wlan0 interfaces are operational, 
but I would prefer to continue using a GUI interface to set up wlan0 if this is 
possible.

To answer part of my own question: I have found /usr/bin/nm-connection-editor 
If I call it from the command line I get the GUI, but it's missing in 
Applications -> Settings.

Is the NetworkManager GUI for GTK installed?

apt install network-manager-gnome network-manager

Does anybody read signatures any more?

I use XFCE to.  Might want to try /etc/network/interfaces, too.  Here's a relevant piece of mine:

# wlan0 -- Get DHCP from SSID: Frasier_Residents, PW: <PW>
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
        wpa-ssid Frasier_Residents
        wpa-psk <PW>

This turns on WiFi at boot and gets a DHCP IP and stuff from the local WiFi net.  And no boogers in the panel...

I'm on Debian 10 (Buster) and 11 (Bullseye), both with XFCE, and don't
have that particular menu entry. Try the notification area, right side
of the top panel. Hover over each icon in the notification area until a
tool tip identifies it.
