nm-applet "disconnected" icon regression (karmic)

[Max Bowsher]

When the nm-applet icons were redesigned in the Jaunty cycle, there was a lot of debate about whether reusing an empty bar graph for both "very low signal" and "disconnected" was appropriate. It was eventually settled that "disconnected" should be differentiated from "very low signal" by being an empty bar graph with a red X emblem.

This change seems to have regressed in Karmic, with a disconnected wireless network again being represented by a plain empty bar graph.

I would think that this is a regression in human-icon-theme. moving there. If you are sure its not a theme issue, please move back to network-manager-applet.

[Alexander Sack (asac)]

milestoned as we dont want such top-level UI regressions in final release.

[David Barth (dbarth)]

Ken, seems it's a bug in the theme: can you take a look and confirm?

[Kenneth Wimer (kwwii)]

Nothing changed in the theme. It seems that network manager changed the icon names it was using
