I have just installed Xubuntu and have no icon for NM. Synaptic tells

run. Any help appreciated.
I am quite sure you are having legacy configurations in
/etc/network/interfaces ... If so you are probably seeing:

easiest solution is to clean /etc/network/interfaces and reboot.

Thanks, Alexander, your suggested link was fine, I removed 'wicd', I
commented out all of /etc/network/interfaces file and sure I got the
familiar nm-applet back. Now I'm just struggling to get the driver and
the settings to work.
