Debian testing; xfce systray. 'sudo service network-manager restart' doesn't bring it back. Networking continues to work, but I can't control VPN connections and disconnections. This morning, after a reboot (seemed the quickest way to get the icon back) it let me connect to a VPN but then disappeared again. Any thoughts? Patrick

Try running nm-applet from a shell, and leave the shell open. If the icon disappears again, check the shell for errors. -- regards, kushal
