what distribution?
what wireless package(s) did you install? did this include the plasmoid?
in system tray settings is wireless checked to display?


OpenSuse Leap 42.1 x64, Plasma 5.x

Did you move the panel from the top of the screen to the bottom while the Hidden Icons were being displayed by the system tray? Also, can you explain what isn't working correctly exactly? As far as I can see in those screenshots, the network management applet is present and functioning.

That is extremely unusual behaviour. LMDE has previously been shown to have defective packaging, so please ensure all packages are from the same version of KDE.

Yes, LMDE and KDE don't mix too well. You'll have to do a bit of tinkering: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=119114

Not sure, it is relatively new but it does seem to have a loyal following.

As stated, I preferred to enable the Debian testing repos and update my KDE (if you are not sure how to do it, just ask).

Open a root shell.

First list your installed packages and put the result in a file:

Code: Select all
dpkg -l|grep kde > mixed-kde-packages


Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list and add

Code: Select all
#Testing
deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian testing main non-free contrib
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib non-free


Now do a
Code: Select all
apt-get update && apt-get install kde-base-artwork kde-baseapps kde-baseapps-bin kde-baseapps-data kde-config-cddb kde-config-cron kde-full kde-games-core-declarative kde-plasma-desktop kde-plasma-netbook kde-runtime kde-runtime-data kde-style-oxygen kde-wallpapers kde-wallpapers-default kde-window-manager kde-workspace kde-workspace-bin kde-workspace-data kde-workspace-kgreet-plugins kdeadmin kdeartwork kdeartwork-emoticons kdeartwork-style kdeartwork-theme-window kdebase-runtime kdeedu kdeedu-kvtml-data kdegames kdegames-card-data kdegames-mahjongg-data kdegraphics kdegraphics-mobipocket kdegraphics-strigi-analyzer kdegraphics-thumbnailers kdelibs-bin kdelibs5-data kdelibs5-plugins kdemultimedia kdenetwork kdenetwork-filesharing kdepasswd kdepim kdepim-groupware kdepim-kresources kdepim-runtime kdepimlibs-kio-plugins kdeplasma-addons kdesudo kdeutils kdewallpapers libakonadi-kde4 libkde3support4 libkdeclarative5 libkdecorations4 libkdecorations4abi2 libkdecore5 libkdeedu-data libkdegames5a libkdegames6abi1 libkdegamesprivate1abi1 libkdepim4 libkdepimdbusinterfaces4 libkdesu5 libkdeui5 libkdewebkit5 libkworkspace4abi1 libkworkspace4abi2 libsigrokdecode0 oxygencursors python-kde4 python3-pykde4


Note that I left out kde-full as I had some problems with that (I think it was the kde-networking that didn't work but they may have fixed it by now). Try it if you wish as that pulls all kde stuff with it. Install any other packages as detailed in your mixed-kde-packages file you created earlier.

Once everything is installed comment out the testing repos in your /etc/apt/sources.list by putting a # in front of them like so:
#Testing
#deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian testing main non-free contrib
#deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main contrib non-free


Then run a
Code: Select all
apt-get update


Time to log out and back in again :)

If everything worked (which it should) delete your mixed-kde-packages file which should be under /root/

HTH - please asking if anything is unclear.
