With Gnome, on the Security tab, there is a checkbox (or slider widget) with which the user can enable/disable the 802.1x. So this starts to seem more like an Xfce4 bug (or a missing Gtk widget library package or similar). I'll have to do some package list comparisons now.

Hi,

Just installed Xfce (with tasksel) on the afore mentioned VM, and confirmed that on Xfce's NM GUI no checkbox can be found. IMO, the bug should be forwarded to Xfce maintainers.

BR,
