Folks,

I'm running Xfce on Ubuntu 7.10, with the wavelan plug-in on my panel.
I've noticed that the plug-in gives me a signal quality of 85 percent,
yet when I run the system monitor Conky, I get a simultaneous signal
quality of 51 percent. Just out of curiosity, which one should I
believe?

With best regards,

Pete
