Ah! No I had completely missed that - thanks! >> The two main ones right now are: > > You listed only one :) Yes I hit send to early. Here are the other ones: -when disconnected, even though the icon is grey to show it is disconnected, if you hover on the icon it says "connected to blah" with blah being your last network you were connected to. -in the Ubuntu/Debian packages, there is no extension.js for gnome3 (gnome-shell). Adding two small files /usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions/wicd@xxx would make wicd show up in the apps bar automatically -on a laptop, there is no way to tell if the wireless card has been disabled or not. On Network-Manager they capture that (I suspect through dbus) and display a red x if the wireless card is disconnected. -I like what Apple does with arp. I cannot find the article right now, but apparently when they re-connect to the same ssid, the do an arp on the lasp ip address they use on that network, and if nobody answers, they use it, then only, do they talk to the dhcp server to try to re-new that lease. This way apparently they re-connect to network instantly with no side-effect. -this will sound silly, but I'd add a blinking icon while wicd is trying to connect to a network - very low priority of course. -- Yves. http://www.SollerS.ca/ http://ipv6.SollerS.ca http://blog.zioup.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ wicd-devel mailing list wicd-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wicd-devel
