Hi,

I'm just wondering if anyone else finds that with Plasma 5 they have to put a plasma-nm applet on the desktop in order to have it show in the systray.

If I later remove the applet from the desktop, the next time I log in there is no plasma-nm applet in the systray and thus no internet connection!

Cheers,

P

So far everything works correctly here. Which Plasma 5 version are you using, and which distro?

Hi,

I'm using Arch Linux with Plasma 5.195 from the kde-beta repository. Had the problem with the stable 5.1 packages in Extra.

The plasma-nm applet doesn't show as an option in the systray config menu, unless it has already been added to the desktop, in which case it is listed as 'automatic load'



P

Just me then?

OK, not a bug!

A long time ago to speed up my boot time according to systemd-analyze, I removed NetworkManager.service from /etc/systemd.multi-user.target.wants .

Restoring this now means that plasma-nm is loaded in the systray on startup.
