Bionic-Mate "menu bar" troubles - zaius - 11-17-2019
So I'm still running Bionic-Mate on my PBP off SD.
Last night I noticed there was a red icon in the top menu bar (or whatever it's called) that said something about not being able to run updates (it wouldn't let me cut and paste what it read). I ignored it because I was busy using the PBP for other things, and did not want to risk breaking anything. Then it went away on its own.
This afternoon I ran the updater. After the update, I had two WiFi indicator icons. So I tried to remove one. Unfortunately, it also removed the battery indicator. After restarting the computer, I now have zero WiFi indicator icons. I also do not have a battery or sound indicator. It still shows processor speed, "EN" (for an English keyboard), weather, and date & time.
How do I get the missing menu items back?

I guess it should be "panel troubles".
I figured out how to add a different battery indicator, but I still can't find one for WiFi.
Adding "indicator applet complete" worked

If figuring this out took you 7 hours then Linux is definitely not ready for the desktop, yet
