The applet is in the systray, but its mini-icon is not visible. The tooltip contains <qt> and <bt> entities. Here are error messages from my ~/.xession-errors file that might be relevant: Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is NULL networkmanager-qt: void NetworkManager::NetworkManagerPrivate::propertiesChanged(const QVariantMap&) Unhandled property "Devices" My system has neon packages as of today, but the plasma-nm is more recent in the kubuntu-ppa/backports PPA: Package: plasma-nm Version: 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1 $ apt-cache policy plasma-nm plasma-nm: Installed: 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1 Candidate: 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1 Version table: *** 4:5.5.4-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa1 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu/ wily/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 4:5.5.3+git20160316.1404+15.10-0 0 500 http://archive.neon.kde.org.uk/unstable/ wily/main amd64 Packages [...] Reproducible: Always
I also tried with the plasma-nm package from neon and the problem is the same.
The info from .xsession-errors is not relevant. Could you please attach a screenshot of your problem?
Created attachment 98058 [details] screenshot Here it is (sorry I forgot the upload it). The screenshot is from the day I reported the problem. Today, with more recent packages, the mini-icon is visible, but I still get the <qt> element.
