Você pode instalar wicd :
apt-get update
apt-get install wicd wicd-gtk
apt-get remove network-manager
Eu recentemente atualizei para o Xubuntu 13.10
Eu ainda posso usar o NetworkManager, mas o ícone do indicador desapareceu após a atualização
Se eu começar manualmente, recebo este erro:
** (nm-applet:5632): WARNING **: Could not initialize NMClient /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager: Rejected send message, 3 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.54" (uid=1000 pid=5632 comm="nm-applet ") interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" member="GetAll" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" (uid=0 pid=930 comm="NetworkManager ")
** Message: applet now removed from the notification area
** (nm-applet:5632): WARNING **: Failed to register as an agent: (32) Session not found
Como posso obter o applet nm de volta?
Eu tive outro problema após a atualização com o indicador de som, mas resolvi assim: link
Se eu tentar
dbus-launch nm-applet --sm-launch &
Eu recebo o erro
