But supplying information which is not certain to be accurate, no. The original "complaint" is that the bandwidth, or transfer rate, being shown is wildly incorrect. If it is not possible to determine that the information being displayed is reasonably accurate then it serves little good to display it as "fact", which many end users would interpret it to be. I would prefer a series of scrolling dots that indicate that the transfer is ongoing with the hope that most of the time a stalled transfer can be detected and potentially indicated. -- Getting tired of non-Fedora discussions and self-serving posts _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kde New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org
