NetworkManager should show up anywhere where the freedesktop tray spec 
is implemented. This includes KDE, icewm, xfce, etc. If you want a 
program that just implements a standalone tray, lookup "stalonetray". 
But you shouldn't really need it at this point, since pretty much 
everything will take it.
