I think there's an Xfce setting to tell what window manager you want to use with it, and if I'm correct about that, there's no need to kill one and start the other every time.

The same thing happened to me and hence I had to send the second mail. I just hope that other guys are getting to read the second mail. so: The question is, why when you start it as a normal user? The package depends on lot of things ( well...gnome's bloatwares often does... ) , if one of those is not started correctly, it might cause the error. We know that it's not dbus, but IIRC, gconf, keyring, notify, and other stuff like that are runnable softwares. Are they started correctly? I will just run ps aux | grep "command" to see if they are started correctly or not. Is there is any other better way to see if they are started correctly or not. I usually use "$ps -A|grep foobar" and have no idea about what does "$ps aux", except that, according to the man: Note that "ps -aux" is distinct from "ps aux". The POSIX and UNIX standards require that "ps -aux" print all processes owned by a user named "x", as well as printing all processes that would be selected by the -a option. If the user named "x" does not exist, this ps may interpret the command as "ps aux" instead and print a warning. This behavior is intended to aid in transitioning old scripts and habits. **It is fragile, subject to change, and thus should not be relied upon.** Anyway, it simply shows if they are started, so probably not good. There is the top command, too, which may help you. Otherwise, since they are, probably, daemons, you can use the command "$/usr/sbin/service --status-all". Another alternative ( quite useful for gdb ), would be to use "$pidof foobar", but I do not know if it can find stuff the owner does not own ( so, you could only see root pids if you are logged as root, AFAIK ). You can also look at dmesg or their logs. neo1691@Innovator:~$ ps aux | grep gconf neo1691 5202 0.0 0.0 53144 2516 ?S20:26 0:00 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gconf/gconfd-2 neo1691@Innovator:~$ ps aux | grep keyring neo1691 6255 0.0 0.0 15296 1036 pts/1S+ 20:38 0:00 grep --color=auto keyring so keyring is not there, I remember I stopped the keyring service because it was bringing up the gnome-keyring warning whenever I used to run git commands.

All the D-Bus and GConf related error messages etc are because you are trying to start it as root from within a user session. I'd probably try with another desktop environment.

And then If I run nm-applet again in a terminal in xfce session, it adds another nm-applet there on the xfce panel. So I guess yes, something is wrong with i3 Not really. You are comparing two different things. XFCE is a desktop environment, built for people who want lightweight but very easy to use systems. i3 is a window manager ( the equivalent of xfwm IIRC ), designed for people which are not simple users, but programmers, system administrators, and other sorts of computing geeks. i3 will only manage windows, for you. It handles various applets perfectly, but not the one you are trying to use. The one you are trying to use, depends of stuff like dbus, policykit, etc, which are not easy to configure. A failure in i3 is possible, of course, but... let's try this: install xfce run xfce kill xfwm and start i3 instead ( in the same command, or you might be annoyed because not having any wm will make things a lot harder to control your system. ). then, start the applet. Like this, you'll know if the problem is i3, or a wrong configuration.

I have added this line in my ~/.i3/config exec --no-startup-id nm-applet Also NetworkManager is running in the background. If I start nm-applet as a normal user, I get lot of gtk theme warnings regarding px, and then one final message ** Message: applet now removed from the notification area: Here the process is still waiting to be finished but nothing happens, so I need to press ctrl-c to interrupt. If I run the command with sudo ie sudo nm-applet I get no gtk warnings but I get this: ** Message: applet now removed from the notification area ** (nm-applet:19095): WARNING **: Failed to register as an agent: (32) No session found for uid 0 And if I login as root, and run nm-applet, I get this: (nm-applet:19416): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.
