I think there are a few reference counting issues in the applet that need to be fixed; it's confusing APs when NM gets restarted and the applet doesn't. The way to determine this is to check /usr/bin/nm-tool to see what NM thinks and then compare that to what the applet thinks. If they differ, that's what the issue is. If they don't, then it's NM's problem and not the applets. After doing an nm-tool, try 'killall -TERM nm-applet; /usr/bin/nm-applet &' and see if it shows up correctly? That would confirm it. Is this still an issue with latest NM? I've fixed the refcounting issues I mentioned in comment 5 and haven't seen this sort of thing for a while. I haven't seen this happen again... Ok, thanks! |
