Network selector applet dissappeared
Hi List; I ran the network selector applet panel and was able to use it to connect to my configured networks. However after my first reboot it went away and I cannot start it again via the menu. Any Ideas why?

Hi Kevin, It might help if you identify your SUSE version, what desktop you're running, your basic hw config and any error messages or other symptoms beyond "it don't work" :-) regards, - Carl

My mistake.. I'm running SUSE 10 and KDE 3.4 on an IBM Z60m laptop. I get no error message when I run the menu item from the menu, or when I run netapplet from the command line. Once I run netapplet a ps -ef shows that it is running, however the applet simply does not appear in my kicker system try

Have you checked /var/log/messages and ~/.xsession-errors? Is the daemon running? - Carl

The problem (one that bugs me about the way a lot of GUI apps run) is that they can fail without leaving a message as to why. At least it's not obvious where such messages are written. To get it running again, kill the current netapplet and then restart it again from the command line: i.e., run "netapplet &". You can do the latter as a regular user. hth, ken -- "It is not knowable how long that conflict would last, it could last, you know, six days, six weeks.
