blinking icons for net activityon andromeda 6.5.1-deb13u1 TDE

Good morning all, my name is Fabio , quite long time experienced on linux, contributor/developer about armhf ( 32bit) on rockchip rk3229 cheap tvboxes

Finally i found this lovely distro and I believe I will stuck on it because I love it.

Maybe my question has already  been answered so please just point me to the thread, otherwise is higly appreciated any advice about .

Is there the possibility to have blinking icons about network activity ( old Xp manner and even lxde manner with network-manager gnome applet  ) on the taskbar , natively ? And, maybe , also a simple indicator about the speed ?

I managed to have a hybrid trinity bar with a little lxpanel bar with network manager applet, but i would prefer a native solution directly on the trinity bar

Should i remove tdenetworkmanager and go withe the "suite"  network-manager and all the applets?

Thanks to anyone could give me a direction

Cheers, Fabio

Hi Fabio, welcome to the forum

Are you running Q4OS Trinity Arm64 version ?

As far as we know, Trinity does not offer such functionality. However, you may find the System Guard panel applet useful, which displays several sensors, including network sensors.

First of all thank you for answer

My previous post was unclear on that, no I am running at the moment on amd64, need expertize and then try on aarch64 (arm64)

Thanks, will dig better on System Guard and look for some setting suitable for my scopes
