[Bug 1423802] [NEW] nm-applet does not appear in the taskbar after latest update of software in lubuntu. I also stried to use te autostart/add on option in preferences but still no luck. I can only start it manually bu doing sudo nm-applet in the command line. very annoying as it was working fine till the last update. Sth's wrong with the last update as i can't have my thunderbird icon on taskbar appear on log on. i used firestarter add on on mozilla thunderbird to minimise thunderbird to task bar on exit. that has gone as well.thanks koli

 

Public bug reported:

tried all the methods out there to fix it, on forums ect as apparently
this was a common bug in the past but no luck. I hope someone looks at
it as it is driving me nuts.
