Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-applets

Somehow, my battery monitor and network manager applets are missing from my top-right panel.

If I right-click on the panel, and click "Add to Panel", those applet are not in the list of addable applets.

Furthermore, System > Preferences > Network Connections provides no settings for adding Network Manger applet to the top-right panel.

Also, System > Preferences > Power Management provides no settings for adding "Battery Monitor" to the top-right panel.

I have discovered no intuitive way to remedy this problem.

This is not intuitive, and I still consider this at least a usability bug, but here's what I did to get those applets back:

How they disappeared in the first place is another bug itself.
