If the applet you want isnt in the list on option 1 "Add to panel" then you might have to install it using Synaptic Package Manager

System - Administration - Synaptic

What do you mean? Applets or the icons in the notification area? Try "Add Applet" then choose notification area ...

Synaptic has a search button that searches through description as well as titles so it allows me to be a lot more vague :) Try using the search button and search for "battery applet" and stuff like that. Hopefully you'll find it and be able to install/reinstall it.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)

I use those applets in redhat5 (GNOME) and ubuntu8.04 and 9.04, but i hadn't to install any package...

It might be worth reinstalling the entire "gnome-desktop" to see if that brings the missing stuff back. Of course if you are using Kubuntu then that would be the "kde-desktop" instead ;) But doing either sounds a bit harsh.

Good luck and regards from
