notification-area

(writing here because my reply to a previous post is marked "deleted by diago")

Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic I have tried removing the notification area from the top panel and reinstalling it, and still I have nothing in it: no volume control, no connection icon. I have put a notification area on the bottom panel, and the only icon appearing is the connection one, looks like two plugs meeting, or a large resistor in line, or two toilet plungers face to face, so to speak.
How can I get this up top where it used to be, along with the volume control icon? Thanks for any help.
