[Bug 1455662] Re: nm-applet icon disappears from menu bar requiring reboot to get back.
Some additional info: nm-applet is not just disappearing when changing
networks, it will also disappear after resuming from sleep. I have found
an interim workaround:
sciri@iko:~$ sudo service network-manager stop; sudo service network-
manager start
That will at least get the nm-applet icon back without rebooting. I've
changed the title accordingly.
** Summary changed:
- nm-applet icon disappears from menu bar requiring reboot to get back.
+ nm-applet icon disappears from menu bar requiring 'sudo service network-manager stop; sudo service network-manager start' to get back.

Title:
nm-applet icon disappears from menu bar requiring 'sudo service
network-manager stop; sudo service network-manager start' to get back.
Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Occasionally when changing Wi-Fi networks the nm-applet icon in the
menu bar will disappear and require a reboot to get back. On previous
releases I could simply killall nm-applet; nm-applet & and it would
reappear but that workaround no longer works.
Find my self rebooting at least once every two days because I lose nm-
applet. This problem seemed to start upon upgrading to Vivid.
