Hi, if you want to prefer network-manager, better do it in lxde metapackage instead of task-lxde-desktop which depends on the lxde metapackage. https://salsa.debian.org/lxde-team/lxde-metapackages/-/blob/debian/debian/control For instance change line 44 from connman-gtk | network-manager-gnome | wicd, deluge | transmission-gtk, to network-manager-gnome | connman-gtk | wicd, deluge | transmission-gtk,
If you want to keep connman it looks like there is a status icon option: https://github.com/jgke/connman-gtk > -Duse_status_icon=[true,false] > Enable or disable the status icon. Future GTK versions might remove the > support for status icons, but as of 3.18 the support is still there, just > deprecated. By the way, there is a similar feature request for Lxqt too: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=975524 And as for https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=994875 I'm afraid everything worked as expected: > as far as I remember connman ignores /etc/network/interfaces by design. > Lxde metapackage in buster recommends wicd which is not available in bullseye > due to the deprecation of python 2. > Therefore lxde metapackage in bullseye recommends connman-gtk (connman). Cheers, Amy
