Hi, A bit off-topic, but this is the café, after all... Like many here, I run XMonad as my window manager on top of Linux. On - at least my brand of - Linux, networking is generally handled by NetworkManager, which really needs its associated applet (nm-applet) to work properly. While I discovered trayer, which at least let me run nm-applet without dragging in most of Gnome, it still drags in some of the bloat, and interacts a bit poorly with the rest of the system (temporarily locks up the screen, transparency doesn't work, positions itself awkwardly, needs gconfd at incovinient times..) So: has anybody tried better alternatives to NetworkManager and nm-applet? Wicd, say? Or something that can integrate with dzen? -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants
