As i mentioned only the user who cares or knows , will know what it means ;-) Back and forth , since the WAP/WEP password is requested [by the router] after the wireless is detected and sent from the system . There is a two way interaction going on there. The forward animation is just to signify that the connection is being established in the system. Its just an animation ;) Again to stress, this is more than just a simple animation for those who require a difference. To aid in finding the stages if they want to notice. But otherwise be out of the way for those who really *shouldnt* care. Yes, a regular user shouldnt really care about this. For power users they know what it means. -- Network manager icons incomplete (do not differentiate stages and vpn) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/553933 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
