[xubuntu-users] The Network Manager applet has vanished from the top panel in Ubuntu 8.10

[D. Hoogland]

Hi there,

For some years I was a happy user of (X)Ubuntu, wired to the Internet. 
Until a couple of weeks ago when I suddenly noticed that the Network 
Manager applet no longer was visible next to the clock in the top hand 
right corner of my screen. The mail reader Epiphany didn't receive mail 
anymore; Google wasn't available either.

I did not alter anything of the system.

What do I have to do to get the connection to the Internet back again?
Please be not too concise in your explanation as I have little knowledge 
of the ins and outs of Linux.

Thanks very much,

Daniel Hoogland
