System tray icon after VPN is connected
Can you please try one thing, because there is sometimes a problem with our new icons. 1) run "kquitapp plasma-desktop" 2) remove plasma icon cache, it's in ~/kde/cache-your-hostname/plasma* 3) run "kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental 4) and run again plasma-desktop "kstart plasma-desktop" I don't see anything wrong in the code and it for me it works, so let me know if removing icon cache helped or not. Thanks. I followed the instructions, but I still see the blank icon. I also tried rebooting the machine after following your instructions, but I still see the same problem.

Output of kstart plasma-desktop
I tried the instructions once more after rebooting, still no change: I see a blank icon when connected to wifi+vpn. Attaching output of kstart if it is helpful. Note that on disconnecting from the VPN, the wifi icon re-appears correctly.
The output is not helpful, you have to enable plasma-nm in kdebugdialog first. Can you please tell me how to do that? Just open kdebugdialog and enable plasma-nm (model, applet etc.). Then restart plasma-desktop again and send me the output. Created attachment 85286 [details]
kstart output with debugging enabled
I think I've found the problem, we already have the same bug in previous versions. Are you able to test a patch and compile plasma-nm from git? Awesome, thanks Jan. The version I am using is current as of 0.9.3.2+git20140219. Was the fix committed after that? I can give compiling from git a shot. I will try to make a debian package for it, or just do a "sudo make install". Which patch did you want me to try? Git commit 1cce8ee607bb0a25086c765cc95d58167d3d769f by Jan Grulich.

Just let me know if you need compile instructions or anything else. You also need libnm-qt and libmm-qt libraries, I think in Kubuntu they are under NetworkManagerQt-dev and ModemManagerQt-dev packages. It seems, that this Bug isn't specific to VPN. On my machine (Kubuntu trusty alpha) the icons for the config switches on top are missing - see screenshot. Deleting the icon-cache didn't solve this. Created attachment 85294 [details]
missing icons in plasma-nm
That's a different problem and I'm pretty sure it happens due to not properly refreshed icon cache. Unfortunately I don't know why this is this happening, but I'll try to look at it. This is not definitely a problem in plasma-nm. It's also possible that you don't see icons when you use another Plasma theme with its own set of plasma-networkmanagement icons.

Another attempt to fix the issue with missing icon for VPN connections M +14 -18 declarative-plugins/applet/connectionicon.cpp http://commits.kde.org/plasma-nm/68edc66a615277c4e00b8f27dc6a4115f922bff4 Jan, would it be possible for you to give me instructions on how to build a deb from git checkout? Are the required build scripts in the repo? I'm trying to find the best way to install non-disruptively, so I don't end up confusing the package manager in the future. I don't know how to build a deb package and there is no script or something like that for building any packages. You can just simply compile it and install. There is README file with description how to compile it, you just need to install dependencies and follow the insctructions. Jan: sorry for the delay in getting back. I just compiled a version from git and installed it. I can confirm that the bug is solved, and now I see a lock icon on the wifi when connected to VPN. Thank you so much! |
