Context: the Arctica Greeter (src:arctica-greeter) that I also maintain and develop upstream looks so much smarter with nm-applet --indicator available in Debian.Is there some way I can test that the indicator works? I just setup a test VM with MATE and installed mate-indicator-applet and added the Notification applet to the panel, but that doesn't seem to have any effect. If I recompile nm-applet with the patches applied and start nm-applet, it doesn't seem to show up in the panel notifications applet. Regards, Michael
The easiest way is: install arctica-greeter. It launches nm-applet --indicator in background and it should then appear in the indicator area (top right).
The other test approach is: * MATE * add mate-indicator-applet and add it to the panel * install ayatana-indicator-application * and -sesion, -power, -notifications, -printers, etc. (if you like) Similar with XFCE and xfce4-indicator-plugin.Note that AppIndicator applications only appear with those plugins if ayatana-indicator-application is installed and launched (via XDG) in background on session startup.
Note, that nm-applet defaults to Xembed and needs --indicator as cmdline option to switch over to AppIndicator mode.
