nm-applet

I instaled networkmanager and his applet but the applet does not show on gnome...

When i try to open it on terminal it gives me a error...

"applet_dbus_start_service(): could not acquire the NetworkManagerUserSettings service as it already taken. return 3"

What to do?

Re: nm-applet

did you run it with sudo? For the applet you need the first start the networkmanager

 sudo /etc/rc.d/networkmanager start

and then run

 sudo nm-applet

Re: nm-applet

could you show the output of this command

sudo /etc/rc.d/dbus start

Re: nm-applet

before running from console nm-applet check if nm-applet is running.
ps ax
maybe the applet isn't showed in the tray


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

Re: nm-applet

instead of "ps ax", this will work too

ps -e | grep "nm\|network"

should appear a process called nm-applet

Re: nm-applet

Found the problem... needed to add to rc.conf "networkmanager" to the daemons section.
