nm-applet doesn't work

Hello.

When I boot my computer and start up Fluxbox, nm-applet doesn't show up in the tray area. It's running, but doesn't show up and doesn't connect me automatically (which it was set to do last time I saw it). If I try to kill it and start it manually via the terminal, I get this:

[jmy@x110 ~]$ nm-applet --sm-disable

** (nm-applet:1549): WARNING **: get_all_cb: couldn't retrieve system settings properties: (2) The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings was not provided by any .service files.

** (nm-applet:1549): WARNING **: fetch_connections_done: error fetching system connections: (2) The name org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerSystemSettings was not provided by any .service files.

Now, most people with this problem seem to have their rc.conf daemons set up wrong, but I'm fairly certain this should work:

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng !network !netfs dbus hal networkmanager crond sensors alsa)

What am I missing here? tongue I don't want to have to connect manually every time I start up my computer.

Re: nm-applet doesn't work

Launch your WM as 'exec ck-launch-session wm' in .xinitrc,


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: nm-applet doesn't work

That didn't (seem to) change anything except now it's not running my fluxbox startup file. Still getting the same two error messages.

Re: nm-applet doesn't work

I still have this problem. Can anyone help me?

If it's to any help, it works just fine when I run xfce4 (except it doesn't show in the tray, but w/e) instead of fluxbox, for some reason, so I guess there's something that needs to run which doesn't in fluxbox. But I dunno sad


EDIT: nvm. Got it working. I was using this fix: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=63576 while trying the ck-launch-session stuff mentioned above and in other threads. Restored the original configuration files, and voila!
