Network Tray .pet doesn't work right in upups (Solved)

[peebee]

The network icon in the system tray in most recent pups comes from:

network_tray-2.9-i486.pet

Unfortunately this does not work correctly in the 2 most recent upups from 666philb - unicornpup and vividpup.

rerwin has discovered (with my testing help) that the following patch is needed:

Add to the end of the function named "Update" (which is invoked by the call, "gtk_timeout_add(interval, Update, NULL);"), the statement:

Code: Select all

return TRUE;

immediately before the ending "}"

The attached source and pet incorporates that patch. Tested to work correctly on vividpup.

#666philb - could these be uploaded to ibiblio please?
http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/sources/n/

If you install the pet onto vividpup to test then you will need to restart the x-server before testing.

rerwin has also detected that the source contains deprecated gtk_ calls and the update on 10-apr-15 includes these further changes.

p.s. I started a new thread for network_tray as I could not find an existing one.

further info needed about that, at least a screenshot, PeeBee. ToOppy 2 from France needs some improvement in web connexion, because only PeasyWifi (peasyconnect) available in the menu. I load the pet, but where is the Networktray ?.
What does it contains ? SNS , Douglas Wizard ?

I've marked this very old thread [REDUNDANT] as it has been overtaken by subsequent versions of network tray produced by 01micko

I hope you don't mind, peebee, that I changed it to Solved.
