[SOLVED] How to get a Networkmanager icon?

Hi,

I installed a Networkmanager on a Fujitsu and a Vaio laptops.   An icon automatically showed up in a notification area on the Fujitsu so that I could set up PPTP-VPN, but not on the Vaio. 

How can I get it? 

thanks

Is 'network-manager-applet' installed and is 'nm-applet' running?

Check the xsession-errors file in $HOME, can't be a problem in permissions.

I'm so embarrassed!  I though I had xxx-applet on my Vaio, too but apparently I missed it.  Now the icon showed up. 

Thanks
