Comment 30 for bug 1308348

i've been kind of keeping quiet about this one because it's no big deal to add @nm-applet to ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart not to mention the fact i use awesome as a window manager so i don't really care if the icon doesn't fit the Lubuntu theme (in fact, i kind of prefer the colored icons with the theme i'm using in awesome), but i have to wonder something.

the icon that i get with the above is the standard icon (not the Lubuntu one) and again, i prefer that, so i'm not about to perform the workarounds to get the Lubuntu one, but selecting wireless APs is no problem, nor is editing or adding new APs. since i've seen complaints about being unable to do this, if you use the gnome icon instead of the Lubuntu icon, does it work then?

also, wicd is not really a good acceptable workaround, IMHO. it's kind of bloaty, at least for my tastes.
