I installed R14 nightly builds on Debian 7 (Wheezy) a couple days ago, and everything looks fine. The NetworkManager icon was normal. Then I installed a few miscellaneous programs, and somewhere in that process the icon turned into a little dot. It looks like it did when I tried to install the Squeeze version of NetworkManager on Wheezy, probably 2x2 pixels. Any ideas what might've done that?
After the point where I know it was working fine, I installed: k3b kuickshow abiword kcalc ttf-mscorefonts-installer bibletime cpufrequtils kima klaptopdaemon kmix ntpdate ...and of course all dependencies for the above.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Update: I uninstalled everything I installed, and rolled back the few things that were upgraded, and the icon is still messed up. I even tried the 486 kernel. So, what exactly is going on here?

Dan have you tried to remove (purge) and reinstall NetworkManager? Perhaps when you mixed wheezy and squeze packages (as you mentioned), the icon was overwritten. Removing those changes would not restore the original icon, but if that was the problem, reinstalling NM may fix it.

Just got back to this machine. The first time it booted the icon was normal, but after I rebooted it went back to the dot. Rebooted several more times, no change.
The trick with the Squeeze package was on a different machine, but thanks for the suggestion.
Now I notice that TDEPowersave thinks there are 2 batteries (there's only one), and it doesn't notice when I unplug the power and it's running on the battery.
This is someone else's machine, so maybe I'll roll it back to 3.5.13.2 for the moment, as it won't be here for me to debug when necessary.
