Thanks, JasonW! Your support is much appreciated.

Triggering Glib should be handled by a start-up script. For persistence, the folder '/etc/NetworkManager/' should be included into '.filetool.lst'. The sub-folder 'system-connections/' must be initially created.

In addition, I found the following strange behavior. Upon re-boot, the icons have gone missing again. I did not do anything for them to appear but doing the same now does not have any effect.  :o How can icons appear on their own? Is there a way to re-launch LXDE? Calling "Reconfigure Openbox" from the "System"-menu does not have any effect.

There are various "nm-stage*"-files under '/usr/share/icons/{Humanity,Humanity-dark,hicolor}' so it is a question of loading them. Killing 'nm-applet' and re-launching it does not have the desired effect.

Okay, progress made! (Can you tell that I am Google-ing my ways along the error messages? ;) )

Calling ''sudo gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0 -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor/'' before launching nm-applet does provide it with the icons. The option "-f" (force) is necessary from what I can tell.

So I would say that this thing is ready to be wrapped up.  ;)

This sounds like you are using Enlightenment desktop, right? Do you have any experience with Connman on Openbox (&LXDE)?

there is a gui for comman. Is it mm-applet supposed to run as root?

Hm, in principle not; at least that is the way it is on my regular Ubuntu installation. However, if I run it as regular user on dCore then I get an error popping up when trying to connect to a wireless network:
(32) Not authorized to control networking.

Found the following which seems to be a work-around:

This link claims that nm-applet should start automatically; however it does not show up after exiting to the prompt and re-starting the LXDE/Openbox-desktop.
