When Gnome 3.2 told me, there are wireless networks available, I accidentally clicked "don't show this message again".

How can I reactivate this message?

Not sure if there's a GUI way to do this, but this will work:

gconftool --toggle /apps/nm-applet/suppress-wireless-networks-available

This basically edits the Gnome "registry" to toggle the value that you set when clicking that button.

right! I found out it's also possible to use gconf-editor. For some reason I thought gconf-editor was replaced with dconf-editor. – speendo Feb 21 '12 at 7:21

Yeah, some programs use dconf (especially in Gnome Shell) and some use gconf. Wish they'd make up their mind =P. Also, you were correct in using gconf-tool, though it takes longer than copy/paste that command into a terminal or Alt+F2 – Githlar Feb 22 '12 at 4:32
