[SOLVED] Low signal warning is driving me nuts!

darkscot · 04-06-2011, 02:03 AM

A week or so ago there was update to Fedora 14 that affected the wlan settings. Since then I keep getting a "low signal on..." warning. This flashes up at least every five seconds. I KNOW I have a low wi-fi signal! I don't need constantly reminding of it.

Is there any way I can turn this warning off? I am using KDE4.6.1.

Are you using network manager? If so, I'm pretty sure you can right click on the network manager icon in your status bar area and disable notifications.

Not that I can see.

Well I forgot to ask... Where are you seeing this warning? In a pop up dialog box, or in your /var/log/messages?

It is the KDE notification pop-up window. I choose to not get ANY notifications but usually I want them, just not the "low signal" every five seconds.

maybe it will help you...

I have found it! It is in System > System Settings > System Notification Configuration. You can customise every single notification. I have never looked there before because I never had to.

I have the same problem but don't find the network-manager entry in the menu "application > event source"..why?I use kde 4.4.5 on debian wheezy.Thanks in advance

I am using KDE 4.6.1 so maybe it is different on that?

By the way, it is actually in Settings (not system) > System Settings > Application & System notifications. Then select event source > network management.

Hi Darkscot and thank you for your answer

The problem is that I actually don't have "Application & System notifications" entry in my menu.Does anyone know if there is a configuration file i can edit?

Try Settings > System Settings > Look & Feel > Notifications. That's where it is in my Debian Wheezy menu.

Can't wait until 4.6.whocares finally makes it to wheezy.
