Hello guys,
I have compiled and installed NetworkManager from the git sources on
Ubuntu Server 15.04.
I can see NetworkManager is running but not nm-applet.
What should be done?
Regards.


nm-applet is not part of NetworkManager's repository.
It's here:
git://git.gnome.org/network-manager-applet

You have to install it separately and run it. Did you do that?


Note that KDE and Gnome3 bring their own NM-UI clients (plasma-nm and
gnome-control-center, respectively). So on those systems you don't
necessarily need nm-applet -- but you can have them both.



You don't necessarily have to build nm-applet yourself. It might just
work if you use the one from Ubuntu.


Also, on some versions nm-applet is hiding itself it notices that
gnome-control-center is running. Do you see the process running with
'ps'?
