Network manager widget

[Franz]

Hello,

I made something wrong and the network manger widget disappeared from the panel and am sorry since it was very helpful to check network connection. If I try add widget to the panel a search option appears, but no network manager option seems available. I also tried to add a default panel, but there was no network manager widget included.

Any idea to restore it?

Franz:

At the very least you can manually run `nm-applet` directly in the
NetVM. Not sure how you made it disappear, though, and not sure how to
get it back...

Hello Francesco,

the network manager widget is visible in the try, if and only if your network vm is running. The widget comes from your network vm.

Best regards

I do have network connection and it is working perfectly. So yes the network vm is running. It is only the widget in the panel that disappeared

Hello,

have you tried to restart Qubes or your network VM?

I tried to run "nm-applet" in a sys-net terminal, but I get:(nm-applet:21885): nm-applet-WARNING ** Failed to register as an agent: (32) An agent with this ID is already registered for this user.

In fact network is working perfectly, so what I understand is that nm-applet is already running. The same the widget disappeared, when I did something stupid to  the panel just exploring it. I did not imagine it was something so delicate.

Huh. Did you try running with sudo, `killall -9 nm-applet`, etc.; all
the usual tricks?

Kill that existing process and start a new one.

Also make sure you didn't remove the systray widget from the KDE panel.
If you did, the NM applet won't show up. You can re-add the system tray
easily enough (right-click on taskbar panel, select Add Widgets), but in
my experience you may still have to reboot afterward to make everything
right.

Did that, got no errors, but no widget in the panel

Did that too and (only after rebooting) it works, the widget is again standing in its corner. Many many thanks to all
