Description arne anka 2009-08-08 18:07:56 UTC

Version:           unknown (using 4.3.00 (KDE 4.3.0), Debian packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.29.4

just upgraded to kde 4.3 and tried to connect with knetworkmanager -- it took me some time to realize, that the icon shown in fact means "active".
an icon displaying a plug and a jack distinctly separated from each other is in no way appropriate to signify a _connection_! in fact, older version of knetworkmanager used it as symbol for a _disconnection_.
please, use a friendly and clear symbol instead.
