[tde-users] Re: Autostart nm-applet blocked in TDE

I don't travel much with my laptop so my home network connection remains more or less static. Nonetheless I have noticed for some time that the nm-applet does not appear in my system tray. Manually launching nm-applet succeeds and the icon appears in the tray. Eventually I traced the problem to the desktop file: NotShowIn=KDE;GNOME; Removing the 'KDE' directive allows nm-applet to launch in TDE. The problem with that is KDE has its own NetworkManager front-end and nm-applet is not needed. So the KDE directive is needed. The mystery is why is TDE interpreting 'KDE' to mean 'TDE'? This seems like a bug but perhaps there is an explanation I am not seeing. I found a list discussion from about 10 years ago that seemed similar. In that discussion nm-applet was launching but the icon was not displaying correctly. In my case nm-applet is not launching unless I remove the 'KDE' directive from the desktop file.
