There are any number of such utilities. A popular one is gkrellm, it can monitor a lot more than just a 'net connection. If you're not using the GNOME panel, you can't use its applets, but there are some simple ones there if you do. Otherwise, 'apt-cache search dockapp', pick and choose, play and poke. -- ________________________________________________________________________ \ David B.
