Hi,

I assume you are talking about the NetworkManager icon in lxpanel's
notification area, right?

open lxterminal, become root with 'su -' and then run 'tail
-f /var/log/messages to find out what's going wrong.

Shouldn't be necessary. The only thing worth installing is gnome-keyring
for storing passwords and pam-gnome-keyring to unlock the default
keyring on log in. You are logging in through lxdm, correct?

Kind regards,
