hi, I installed artix today, the network manager icon do not show up at the panel (xfce).
it is hiding from you... try chocolate ...
Try to start nm-applet from terminal, it might tell you where is the problem.
I don't know if xfce is using its own panel applet for NM
Also, is the notification area widget enabled?
Something is wrong the vlc multimedia dosen't work neither ... it can't be opened.
The system is installed in spanish, i don't know exactally how to translate all this into english ...
[keos@kaos ~]$ nm-applet

That warning shouldn't stop it from launching, right-click on an empty area on the panel and add the notification area thingamajig.
i don't know what is thingamajig. and the icon is not at the menu whisker.
Make sure you have the notification area applet activated, so that nm-applet has a place to appear.
you are right, it was not activated.
Thanks!!
