Description Chris van de Sande 2015-04-01 21:44:18 UTC

Description of problem:
After updating today, nm-applet does not always appear in xfce4-panel's notifications area

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.9.10.2

How reproducible:
Happens every time I logout/login to Xfce

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Login to Xfce
2. Logout
3. Login

Actual results:

nm-applet is running, and providing notifications but no icon is visible on the notification tray

Expected results:
nm-applet is visible

Additional info:
Workaround by removing the notification "item" from Xfce-panel and re-add it.  nm-applet then appears.

This seems like a change in the systray in Xfce. I don't think nm-applet icon integration changed.

Are you able to reproduce that if you kill nm-applet and run it in a terminal?
$ killall nm-applet
$ nm-applet
... repeat...

Can you report your Gtk3 version? There were some issue with Gtk in the past (bug 1112650).
$ rpm -q gtk3

Comment 2 Chris van de Sande 2015-04-02 09:10:38 UTC

Yes, problem is reproduced by killing it and re-running from terminal.

$ rpm -q gtk3
gtk3-3.14.10-1.fc21.x86_64

Same problem for me, the solution for display the icon is to restart the panel, this work for me:

xfce4-panel -r

I can confirm that this helps. It might be related to bug #1172457.

Comment 6 Kevin Fenzi 2015-04-03 20:11:54 UTC

I think this is the same as bug 1208417 and looks like some change in gtk3-3.14.10 

NM manintainers feel free to mark is as such if you agree.

I think this bug it self is a duplicate of 1208183.
