Hello Jonathan,

Thanks a lot for your reply but neither myself nor that user are looking
for something like that :)

Myself and the other user are looking for something exactly the same as
Ubuntu 10.04. I managed to add that on Lubuntu 11.04 but got some problems
and when I rebooted, it's gone. On 11.10, I can't add it because
"indicator-me" package is NO longer available on the repositories and when
I added the PPA, I got an error message (old or removed package).

Thanks again :)

P.S.
Some bugs:
