New in KNemo 0.7.0 (Dec 6, 2010)

  • kill custom commands that are still running when KNemo closes

New in KNemo 0.6.0 Beta 1 (Nov 7, 2009)

  • backend changes:
  • added IPv6 support
  • sysfs and nettools backends replaced with a netlink backend on Linux and a more general backend for BSD (currently only tested on FreeBSD). Note: BSD backend currently lacks wireless support.
  • polling periods can range from 0.1 to 2 seconds
  • added notifications for when an interface becomes available/unavailable
  • statistics changes:
  • added weekly statistics
  • monthly statistics can act like "billing periods". Billing periods can start on an arbitrary day and can span 1-6 months.
  • optional notification if a billing period's traffic exceeds a threshold
  • ui changes:
  • improved icon theming modeled after the network status icons in the freedesktop.org icon naming spec
  • added a text icon theme that reports upload/download speeds in the tray
  • status dialog supports multiple IP addresses per interface

New in KNemo 0.5.2 (Apr 1, 2009)

  • fix config dialog so it preserves new position and size settings
  • events work again
  • sys backend uses iwlib instead of deprecated /sys/class/net/*/wireless
  • backends check the wireless access point for the encryption status
  • each monitored interface creates a plotter on startup but keeps it hidden; this way the plotter already has a history before it's made visible for the first time
  • don't inadvertently force libiw as a dependency
  • take range (or lack of it) into account when showing wireless link quality
  • if there is no config file, KNemo will monitor the default route interface; this should reduce confusion for first time users while remaining discreet
  • sys backend is now the default

New in KNemo 0.5.1 (Mar 5, 2009)

  • added Ukranian translation, thanks to Sergey Panasenko
  • fix build on Gentoo

  • improve how dialog size/position is saved and restored
  • Set reasonable limits on numeric values in the config dialog
  • remove horizontal line count setting in config dialog; no longer relevant

  • The first time it is run it does not create a default list of devices; manually clicking "Defaults" will still create a default list though
  • tweak how various sections of the dialog become enabled/disabled depending on the settings
  • tooltip stats are now dynamically updated
  • config dialog now searches for icon sets on startup. This lets users install their own custom sets. See README for more details.
