Upstream bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/140
** Description changed: + https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/140 + + --- + Ever since the update to Ubuntu 18.04 I'm having issues with the status menu at the top right of the screen. Normally you'd have a wired network connection icon displayed at the top without opening the menu. In my case it is not displayed half of the time. In the menu list no icon nor label is displayed for the wired connection menu item. When talking about half of the time it means that I can randomly make it display again when removing the USB network adapter and reconnecting it e.g. This does not work reliably though. When connecting to a VPN, normally you'd get an additional icon at the top. This is not the case any more, nor does the switch behind an activated VPN turns change to an active state. The result is that you can activate a VPN using the switch, but you can verify that it is activated, nor can you de-active the VPN through the menu. This does change in settings though. Wireless settings are no longer displayed in the menu at all. So no way to activate it or connect to a specific network. I tried reconfiguring (dpkg-reconfigure) gnome-shell as well as network- manager-gnome, to no avail. Attached you'll find a screenshot illustrating the issue. You'll see two icons missing to the left of the volume icon, as well as the wireless menu missing completely and no icon and text label for the wired connection menu item.
