Happy to meet you all. I'm new and I'm having my first problems. I installed a Bodhi 5 32 bit on an old computer and all is well. Now instead I put a bootable flash drive with Bodhi 6.0 64 bit on a new notebook with Windows installed intending to install Bodhi next. Two things are strange: 1) in the thunar file manager I don't see the disk on which Windows is installed and I can't enter it (not even GParted sees the partition and so I don't know how to change it to reduce it and leave space for Bodhi); 2) in the systray the WiFi icon doesn't appear and so I can't check the connections. I can activate it only with the network manager program launched from the main menu, creating from scratch a wifi connection manually with the SSID of the device in use (without that Bodhi automatically recognizes the networks present) but in these conditions I do not dare go to installation. Is there something wrong?
Thank you in advance for your attention.
Bodhi is beautiful!

I’m sorry, the forums primary language is English. If possible could you re-post in English. We can try and google translate but results vary. Apologies, thanks

To whom that could answer to my question: I noticed that in the main menu there is the program Advanced Network Configuration (it works very well when you want to create a new wi-fi connection) but there is no Network Manager (n-m applet) in the whole system.

Hello there Yes, BL 5.1 had this bug. Try to add network manager to the startup apps list as I have on the screenshot. Go to menu->settings->Settings Panel i.imgur.com/CC57JIr.jpgStefan EDIT: the proper name is nm-applet and I am sure it is your system. Try nm-applet from terminology |

Thank you, thewaiter! Actually, I have my icon in the systray and the applet works fine. I could consider the discussion solved, except for the other problem: I can't find the Windows partition in the file manager. Is it possible that it depends on the Windows configuration? Something like "blocked partition"?
